Fog light problem
recently my fog lights went out and my headlights would not go down, after ripping the whole front of my car apart taking out both headlights i checked all the fuses related to the fog lights and headlight motors. It turned out to be the #6 fuse in the footwell labled taillights and parking lamps what that fuse has to do with the fog lights is beyond me . Im posting so if anyone runs into this problem it will be in the back of your mind and you wont take the whole car apart. Once again thank god for this forum it got me through yet another problem

I managed to blow that fuse when I fitted my Euro lights. As you say, its not marked very well. I found it by trial and error - I checked every single fuse until I found it.
Good reminder

Just for grins 
, might look at #1 and #6 fuses under hood. If either one is burnt out, neither will come on.
Just checked mine and discovered that. I thought one of the two fogs would come on, but didn't. (running HID bulbs in fogs) FYI
Cheers......
