Default Can anyone shine a light?

Hi Does the rear fog lamps on the 75 have a separate fuse and if so where is it? I have a problem with the bulb failure 💡 coming on yet the bulbs are OK. The front fog lamps work ok but the rears do not! Thanks

Double check your brakelights or rear lights as when a bulb fails, one of the others takes its place at 50%

When testing have you switched the key to position 2 and the headlights on?

I tend to do that sort of thing here and there even before problems arise from condensation.----

Chases that nasty corrosive water away.--
