Using them at the proper time ought to aid safe driving, however, their usage when unwarranted can mean that you are breaking the law and endangering other drivers. Fog light symbols - to turn them on or off - can usually be found on a button on the dashboard, on a steering wheel stalk, or next to the dial you use to control your regular lights. Ran accross this post by mistake, but I know the answer to your rear fog only working on left side... For many generations citizens have driven in the USA without Rear fogs, and unless you live in area that has cronic fog, or blinding snow storms etc., they are of no use at all.
Use your lights if visibility is reduced to 100 metres (328 feet) or roughly the length of a football pitch Now - I have not been successful yet in my search for a right side stalk with both rear and front fogs, and it may be that it was only designed for left hand drive cars in russia and some parts of asia. b) use dual colour led bulbs in reverse lights, extending cable from existing fog lamp loom - doable, and really easy to replace bulbs/maintenance if need be.Full compliance with this guide doesn’t guarantee a pass. You’ll need to view the IVA Inspection manual for the full requirements and testing procedures needed to get your vehicle passed. In fog or other low visibility conditions, you should turn on your main headlights. Fog lights should be activated in addition to your dipped headlights when visibility falls to less than 100m.
The symbol for the front fog lights, as stated above, is an oval-shaped lamp with three diagonal lines intersected with a wavy vertical line to the left of it. Obviously fog lights aren't needed when it's dry, and there's not much point in turning them on when it's dark, either. The lamp housings don’t have the same kind of reflectors as main beam headlights, so they are unlikely to give you any extra light to help you see where you are going. The other option I toyed with, was some kind of frankensteins monster of cutting and glueing together the retroreflector to the new fog lamp, what I need is someone with good 3d printer design skills to make some kind of holder or housing According to rule 236 of the Highway Code, "You MUST NOT use front or rear fog lights unless visibility is seriously reduced (see Rule 226) as they dazzle other road users and can obscure your brake lights. You MUST switch them off when visibility improves."
If the test is unsuccessful, what else could it be other than a break in the wire somewhere? A dodgy earth? If so where would I look for that? You'll usually find front fog lights fitted to mid-spec models and upwards, partly as an aesthetic feature that helps differentiate these cars from the most basic versions. They’re also useful to help you be seen when driving in fog but if you spend any time driving in inclement weather in the UK, you're likely to come across a driver that doesn't know how to use them properly. It seems like the water ingress in the Alarm SCU suffered earlier in the year did more damage that was first thought. With this in mind I decided the best cause of action was to bite the bullet and get the Alarm SCU replaced. I think any other cause of action would only be delaying the inevitable. This same question comes up a lot, in euro version Benz both left and right rear fogs are wired up and work as expected. On all USA version cars, only drivers side is provided for, because of US DOT regulation that prohibits BOTH Rear fogs, ONLY Emergency vehicles in the US are allowed to have both, so Benz only wired up the left side to comply.
