Hi I have front and rear fog switch. The front works. My question is does my e30 325 touring have a rear fog light. The dash light doesn't light with the switch. Which fuse and relay does it run off the same as the front fogs?

All UK cars have to have a rear fog for the MOT.

All Fuse info is in the Wiki too:

I've checked the fuses and swapped the relays about and still no joy. I'v ordered a switch hopefully that will be the problem

The switch can be taken apart and cleaned. That's all mine needed.

That's all they ever need! Very easy to do.
