    Quick question, haven't even looked at ALL. But anyways, the fog lamp light doesn't turn on when I flip the switch on the interior.
    What might be the first thing to look at. A fuse? Cut wire?..etc. Bulbs look perfect but that may be the issue too. Thanks guys!

    1 million % of the time its the bulb
    just replace it or get a new switch.. the bulb is soldered in so its not a plug and play swap, ive got about 4 switches here at home, all but 1 doesnt light up orange lol

    Yeah, one of my bulbs went out, and when it did, the indicator light went out, and hasnt worked since, even after replacing the bulb in the fog light, and checking for power in the switch, no big deal though.

    yeah, i replaced my fogs with silverstars, and they work when you flick the switch, but up until recently the orange indicator light never came on despite the fogs working.
