Welcome to the forum sidecar,

I've copied this question from your Intro. Members here with the same model will be able to help.

Just to make sure you understand, there are no front fog lamps on this car. The fog lamps referred to are REAR fog lamps, in essence extra bright tail lights for low visibility situations.

That is the problem I have. My fog lights are in the rear. They didn't do a thing for me good driving in the fog, that's for sure. LOL
It took me a while to find them when I got home.

My fog lights are not working either. Think it could be a loom problem. Wires apparently break when the lid is put up and down . I don't know how to get at the loom or the fog lights, can anybody help!

This is an unusual number of reports of rear fog lights not working.

Before everyone starts digging into the wiring harness, let's get the obvious out of the way - Rear fog lamps will only operate when headlamp dipped beam or Auto lamps are selected.
