Default PIAA will not light
This morning went out. No PIAA fogs on in my 2000 C5. No fuse problem. I can hear the relay clicking. Any ideas. Chances of both bulbs burning out at the same time are slim...

Tuan Lee will get you a new relay. Thats what mine did also. Check out all other connections first to see if power is coming out of the relay when swithched on.
