Just put in a new globe for signal indicator. And notice that there is actually a H3 globe in the fog light which never been switched on as there is no switch can be found in the car.

Then check the fuse box in the bonnet and discovered that the FOG LAMP fuse is not there. Plug in a fuse for it for it didn't light up still when i swicth on the headlight.

Anyone out there got any ideas how to switch on the light please?

Thank you! =>

Anyone else??

You are looking for the front fog light ISO symbol. See Attachment.

As modr33s2 states, it should in this case be a rotary knob bout halfway along the headlight stalk. Once activated (your headlights will also need be on either park, low or highbeam) you should, or might, see a green pilot light.

UNLESS they were added by another owner and that owner removed the switch, (after-market) or not. If that is the case, add a relay and seek your own switch. Narva have specific fog light switches bearing the front fog light symbol.

Does the fog lamp lens bear any markings?? "02B" is the code you need for front fog lights. If the code is HR, then these are 'driving lights'. (B = fog, R = driving light).

It is my view that people should consider a rear-fog light as their 'primary' defence against rear-end collision during times of heavy rain, fog, snow, dust or bushfire smoke, before even bothering with front fog lights, which really are 'a luxury'.

My car is Series 1 R33gtst. Went to have a look in the car. Cannot find anything that look like the symbol u show me. Too bad. Probably it is just an aftermarket one and the siwtch was took away by the previous owner.

I think i need to get myself a new switch and new a electrictian to rewire it for me..( do i need one?) Intend to fix the new switch on the previous antenna switch which is sitting useless on the dashboard.

I am unsure as to the 'shape' of the antennae switch your refer, but I would suggest you might have luck with Narva Part 62058BL, this bears a Green LED, but no symbol, it is easiest to install, those below need some 'trimming' of a cars fascia. See this weblink:

OR you could try Narva Part 62025BL, see top of that link, you fit the front fog symbol and the green lens to the switch; OR

Perhaps better still - Narva Part: 63027BL This is a dedicated front fog light switch. See near the bottom of this link.

Again, can you see any markings on the lens of the light?

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
