When you fitted your front fogs, when you changed the switch did any of the leads get knocked or lose ?

Dirty connection ?

havent actually put my front fogs in yet i think the switch may be knackared cause the fog symboll doent light up yellow or green or whatever colour its meant to, it failed on a few thinks really, but some are stupid like no water in the washer tank and no sidelights cause i took the fuse out cause i hate the angel eye rings so there now fixed but my mates gonna have it all tomorrow and fix it all,

so sumarise ,

ive fixed half its failures already but my drivers side rear wheel is binding so gonna get that looked looked at hand brake has no reserve and handbrake dosent stop passanger rear wheel,

at least all my emmissions are all spot on !.


as soon as its fixed new wheels !

lol no offense taken :P i woke up late ant the test was at 12:15 and i originally thought it was at 12:45 and didn't get time to check all that just had to shower and get going i knew it had no water in it but the guy wouldn't even let me put any in mid test, forgot all about the side light fuses as they have been out about a year cause i hate the rings on angel lights and the fog i had no idea the fuse had blown,

The only semi major thing is it failed on is rear drivers side wheel binding but that's getting fixed tomorrow. And my handbrake sits too high but that's getting reset too.
