2019 mk8 Rear fog lamp

[Guest]

Hi Guys,

Noticed tonight one of my rear fog light bulbs isn't working.  Is it an easy replacement, my in app manual says something about accessing through wheel arch! Not sure if i have led or not either.

Sorry for the question, but being in the Golden wheels club all my driving life until now, I've never replaced a car bulb in my life 🙂

Cheers

Hi CSC, can I guess its the one on the passenger side (Near Side) ?

Hi mate....oh no, I can see a major cockup on my part coming up, just by the question. 🙂

its the nearside (passenger side) which is out.

I had thought of parking mode, but can't see how they would have park mode for a rear fog light, but who knows 🙂 or maybe a Ford OCD thing where it looks better by putting a dummy one on the other side, when really only one works anyway

Well I'm not a 100% sure, but nearly all cars these days only have one rear fog on the drives side. The other is often just a dummy or the revese light.

Best check other Fiesta's first before you go scrambling about in the back of wheel arches 😉

Thanks mate, exactly not messing under the wheel arch just to find out that its a dummy, and so am I 🙂

I just made the opposite mistake when I noticed revesing my car I could see the the reflection and I only had one reverse light. Turns out the other is my rear Fog 🤣

Sounds like what I would do 🙂
