Is there a difference between rear fog switch and front fog switch other than the number 2??
Extortionate price difference....
 
erm yeah. Wait for it...........its a good one.............:)


























Front one does front fogs and the back one does back ones :drum: :D

:D but can I use another rear switch when fitting front fogs as front switch costs £47 and rear switch costs £7....why the price difference?

The only thing i can think of is that front fogs would be 2 lamps and the rear is only one low draw bulb.

Not that the wiring should pass the current through the switch.

I honestly can't see why not but wait for other to chime in, in case ive overlooked summit. :confused:

It does happen! :rolleyes:

They both switch to earth, but the front switch (with the "2") latches, the rear one doesn't.

The rear fog lamps switch makes a momentary path to earth for an ECU that does the actual rear fog lamp switching.

The front fog lamps switch switches a relay's coil to earth.

If you're not too worried about the symbol on the switch's face, you can use a Puma Defender heated seat switch (YUF500150LNF), which costs a fiver.

This switch is a latching live-switching switch.

You could use a Puma heated seat switch and swap the front for a rear fog lamps switch, that combination would only cost around £12 :)

The Puma switch uses the Black 5-way switch connector (see my signature or PM me ;) )
