Not 100% but I think at least side lights have to be on for them to work. |

That was my first thought, facelift the car and not connect the lights back up, the lights will come out through the front of the bumper, fairly easy and will prove if they are connected. |

Sorry for being ignorant but how can i tell? all i know is that the unit was connected whilst removing the light and the fog lamp indicator light comes on in the dash. The bulb has been changed along with the fuse! |

I would have thought that if the switch were disconnected he would not get the green fog lamp light on the dashboard. If they are connected physically then it will be fuse or relay however I still struggle to wire a plug so someone with more auto electrics knowledge will know more. |
