Fog Light Wiring

Fog Light Wiring
I bought a new bumper that came with fog lamps which I did not have previously. I noticed underneath the wiring to connect them is there. There is a button on my dash top left of cluster on steering wheel, but it feels like a dummy switch. Is there anything else I need other than that switch to get them to work? Thanks.

I had a similar situation with my 2003 which was the low end model with no lamps and when I upgraded to an ARB bumper it had the cutouts so I picked up a set of the OEM lights. All I did was connect the wires from the harness behind the bumper and they worked fine however it has been 5 years now and I can't remember if I had a dummy switch block in the dash and had to get the switch as well. My mind just does not remember that far back! Try pulling out the switch, does it have a lamp image on it? If it is a switch and wired up it should work.

Excellent. I took it apart and see exactly what you are talking about, found the switch on ebay. Thanks.

Also, sometimes the switch is different depending on where it goes... for example on my 2003, the rear fog light switch was on top, but when I got my front fog light switch, it went on top. Instead of buying a new rear fog light switch that would fit in the second down position, I just trimmed the plastic on the old switch so it would fit.
Also, you'll probably have to have the fog lights enabled in the BCU.

Talk to me about this. I just installed the correct fog light switch and still no luck. The switch lights up just like the rear fog light so I know it has power, but when I press and engage nothing. The small led indicator does not light up on the switch and the lights do not come on. Is there anyway to test the BCU or how would one go about enabling the fog lights?
