Oooh what does this button do?

Post by Mads » Fri Jun 05, 2020 7:37 pm

Hiya,

Sorry if this has been answered already, but I couldn't find it anywhere!

Just got myself my first bongo (N reg), and it's got a little switch to the right of the steering wheel. I flipped it but can't see that anything happens... Can anyone more talented shed some light on this for me..?

Thanks in advance! :D

Most likely your rear fog lamp will only work when sidelights are on as well, legal requirement in the UK not in Japan hence need to fit lamp and switch on import.

Spot on.

Sometimes headlights need to be on, just depends on how it's wired.

Many thanks, I had actually tested this out before... Turns out it just needed a new bulb! :D
