c36 fog lamp issues

[BALLLR]

one of my fogs went out. took it out, bulb was shot. replaced it with new nokya yellows. still doesnt' work? fuses are fine. I see the wire goes into a relay. any suggestions?

lol...and when you figure it out, let me know!

I have had the same problem since I bought my C36 last year. Somewhat academic as we don't have fog in sunny Brisbane!

i had this problem too, ended up being a bad solder on the foglight, where the wire attaches to the fog, re soldered it and it was fine.

Well while doing routine maintenance on the car I noticed my lights dimming while idling. I checked the alternator and it was going bad only putting out 12.5 to 13 volts. I was surprised I only had the 90-amp OEM alternator so I swapped it out with a 143-amp alternator that was made for a 95 s500. All I had to do was swap out the pulley. Cost was 177.00 for the alternator.. To my surprise my fog lamps started working fine again...go figure.
