Hi Paul,

I looked a little at it this week but working too so not much time spent. It's not the same as what you say [EDIT - just rechecked and you are correct, all I have is parks and no fogs] with fuse removed. Actually the rear heated screen and heated mirrors fuse which was melting also has been removed but I can cut the wires underneath as there is 2 so happy days, fuse holder going in next Tuesday when I'm off work again. I think the 2 wires going in are just each fog light output so I will Ohm out the wires going to the fog light relay (small brown one) and just cut out the wires and put in a fuse holder. That's if I can figure it cos there's a load of wires to be messing about with.

[EDIT - Found wiring diagrams just now so going to have a go at fixing next week.]

Hi Martin.

Done already. In the pic in my 1st post, the 2 big blue wires had already been cut so job done there. I didn't even look at this before because first port of call was fan and 044 rewire. Recently got a brand new fully braided loom with coil and 044 pump loom integrated into it, plus alternator rewire and starter rewire. Thought my rewiring days were gone after that but then the bloody fuses kicked off. Noticed I'm missing the grommet in each fog so water probably got in and fried it nice and toasty

Philip.
