2 Sets of bulbs and 4 fuses later.....
OK well some of you know that I have had a few issues with my fogs... well this weekend I was driving alot at night and one of my fogs went out again... like it usually would... pull over tap it a few times (I know this isn't the best way of doing things but it seemed to work for a bit....
nothing went on.. ok well the light must be burnt now.. the other one worked fine.... shut them off continue the drive.... get up the next morning to start working on these... went to Canadian tire bought some regular yellow stock stuff. take the housing apart ask the gf to test it and boom the light goes on... wtf is going on... check the wires... check the connection.. it all seems good..... put it back together and it goes out... this was f'n fustrating.. happened about 5 times in a row... so I told her to keep them on this time and everytime I tried putting them back together... the light woudl go out... look around... touch and probe things.. nothing wrong.. then I finally put it together and it worked... woo hoo... put on the lock washer... and boom the thing goes out.... check the bulb and it's burnt now... ok... nice... let's use a stock light now.. see if that is the problem. put the stock one in.. ok check the light now.. boom that one works but the other light is now off... ggrrr.... put that one together... shut off all the lights.... take apart #2... and the light is fine.. wiggle the wires around nothing happens... check the fuses and it's burnt... ok use another 15 amp fuse from somewhere else... put it in... and boom the fuse for the other light burns out... wtf? so go to Canadian tire get a box of fuses... put both fuses in... both lights work.. woo hoo... go to the beach come back later on... and still only one fog.. get the light the next day and it's fukin burnt...
i give up.. it's going into the dealership on wednesday.. I have no more patience nor $$ to spend on this... gggrrrrrr
( btw I didn't touch the bulbs with my hands or anything...)
