Default Fog and dash Lights out

When I turn my fog light on, they don't work, neither does my dash lights. Even when I turn the lights on, no dash lights at all. Checked inside fuse panel #19 (instrument panel control) and under the hood fuse panel # 6 (fog lights) Am I missing something? Also, in the past when the fog lights were turned on, they didn't work sometimes unless I jiggled the turn signal. I'm thinking it might be the turn signal control itself......Anyone experience this before?? Thanks! John

Thanks for the reply. I figured as much. You know what it takes to replace? Is it a pain?

Rear running lights are on the same circuit as the dash lights. It's been that way on almost all cars for the last 30 years. It's so that you know your tail lights are out. Now, onto the problem.. I would check #6 fuse, (10amp fuse) under the passenger floor-board. The fuse is labeled "taillights/parking lights".

If that ain't it.. check this thread for switch r/r..
