94 Q45 Fog Lamps Just Stopped Working

[AlabamaDan]

My NICO Brethren, can you tell I'm fixing all those little things on my Q? The most recent pesky thing is my fog lamps. Last month one day they just stopped working. I checked the fuses and they're all fine, besides I didn't see one devoted to them anyway.

I haven't actualy looked at the bulbs but it seems suspect they'd just both go out at the same time. Any suggestions?

I agree it seems suspect that both would go out at the same time. I had the same thing happen a couple of years ago (on my 94Q). I thought it was something in the electrical system but when I replaced the bulbs everything worked fine. Hope this is the same for you.

I owned Lola for over 1 year, before I got around to replacing the bulbs in the driving lights. I even had the bulbs in the trunk the whole time. It seemed every time I drove the car at night, I would say, "I need to replace those bulbs". Then I would not drive the car for a few weeks.

Both the bulbs were toast on her. I used to pot driving lights in Layla monthly. I put in those high wattage blue bulbs. They wouldn't last long. It sure helped out the night driving on back roads. Of course, I was taxing my electrical system with the higher low beams, high beams, and driving lights, but I never had a problem other than burned out bulbs all the time. I kept 2 full sets in the trunk, and got very proficient at replacing them.
