what about Car Parts & Spares -- Buy Online with Fast UK Delivery | GSF Car Parts dont they do them

Tried GSF they don't have any and without the relay I can'y even get a order code off it.

Can anybody have a quick look at there series 2 fuse board and just comfirm that it is relay number 7 as I may have others missing as well infavt if anybody could take a quick pic of 1 actually on the car that would be super

Thanks
Gary

have you got the ceramic fuse board or the blade, mines the ceremic one if its the same i'll have a look

Should be a relay no7 for front and rear fogs. But there is also a fuze at the top of the fuze board for the fogs, should have grey white wires going to it .

You may not have a relay with just one rear fog [correct for uk on drivers side ] just a fuzed link as i said on the top of the board .

Check that fuze it should be above relay 5 .

Loads of VW ones in the scrap yard. The relay has 4 blades, with my car any 4 bladed relay works the fogs.

I've got some relays that i rescued out of a MK2 that we got on station to practice cutting up. When you find out what number it is , let me know and if i've got one i'll send it to you.

Different to the GTI model eg relay 11 missing [rear wash wipe not on Cabriolet ]. No7 relay was never fitted . Fogs UK was one rear 21watt bulb fitted to the drivers side .

Same fuze box in say Passat with top of the range bits would have had front and rear fogs and had a relay . Parts bin again , thats why your fog  light switch has 2 positions .  GWtaylor your fuze panel should look like this .  

yep exactly like that

I'd always wondered about that
