 Subject: F0g Lights quit working
IP: Logged
Message:
It's a 1999 club cab Sport.
I checked the bulbs and they are good, the fuse under the hood is good. The little indicator light just below the light switch doesn't come on anymore though?
Is it the light switch? Anyone got any advice?
Thanks.

You said you checked the fuse under the hood but did you check the relay?

Hmm, I didn't know there was a relay for the foglights.
I'll go check that right now.

Nope, it isn't the relay.
I'm pretty sure now that it must be the switch which at the local dealer is 75 dollars!
I'm going to try a better dealer tomorrow which should be a lot cheaper.

Go here to buy your OEM parts...this stuff comes from a dealership, but it's a lot cheaper usually.

Thanks for the link to that place.
I'm going to give them a call because on my truck, the foglamp and headlight switch are integrated.
What it is, is I turn the knob to turn on the headlights and then when I want the foglights on, I pull the knob out about a quarter of an inch.
My closest dealer wants 75 dollars for this switch and my favorite Dodge dealer that is a little far away wants 64.70 for it.
I'll call that place on the link in thirty minutes when they open to see what they say. I am curious now.
I have read in the past about this switch being failure prone.
