Fog Light help

[kevinw2345]

Hey guys, not too sure if this is the right place to post this if not please let me know and i will move it. Anyways i have a problem with my fog lights. I have a 98 Ford Expy Eddie Bauer. My day time running lights wont turn off so the fuse is pulled and my fog lights wont turn on. When i pull the head light switch to turn them on the light on the dash board says they are on but arnt. Also something is rattling inside the headlight switch (if that has anything to do with it) Any help would be appreciated. Thanks guys.

i would look at replacing the headlight switch... might fix all your problems

Thank you, i was thinking of trying that. Might go to the auto wrekers tomorrow to grab one and see if it solves the problem i am hoping it does. Thanks.

Hey 200eb i went to the auto wrekers and they dont have any expys so i am going back tomorrow to check out some f-150s. The dealership wants 300.00 for a switch. Holey crap lol.

Rock Auto is about $120.
If you put the fuse back in does everything work OK? If so, it's not the headlight switch.

Thanks for your reply dougmcp, i have out the fuse back in and tried it and it still dont work. I might just re-wire it if the auto wreckers dont have anything that will work. 300.00 is a way over what i am looking to spend for a switch lol.

It will probably cost you $50-$100 at the wreckers.
Rock Auto, a sponsor here has your switch for $120.
