Fog Lights on Dashboard

Post by selleym »

Right i thought it was odd that nothing shows on the dashboard when I put on the front fog lights.
So looked in the handbook and it says there should be a light for:
Dashboard Lights.PNG
So it says i should have one for:

Rear Fog Light
Fog lights (Guessing front?)
Daytime running lights

So here is a picture of mine with everything on.

I don't get the "fog lights" light or the "daytime running" light on the dash?

Is something wrong here?

Cheers

It must be for different markets. The only light that lights up when the front fogs are switched on is the symbol on the light switch. Only the rear fog has light on the dash.

No lights for DRLs either.

Nothing wrong with your car.

What you doing teading the manual anyway. Are you a girl?

Well that's silly even my corsa told me the front fogs were on!!
Haha!
Step 1 read one page of the manual.
Step 2 dismantle the dashboard! haha

Also to put the fog lights on i have to switch from auto to "On" which seems stupid. Anyway the lights can flick on and off quickly.

So i am thinking just leaving it in the on position all the time. Does it make any difference between auto and on. Like dashboard or interior lights?
