fog light not working

fog lights are not working
pulled fuses in the engine compartment, all good
pulled fuses under the dash, all good
it would appear that these lights are not FORD factory, so there must be
another place where FR has fuses ???

any help would be appreciated

Only work with lights on, and in dim mode. Any one figure out how to turn on LED front lights without awning lights? Like what color are the wires for the awning lights?

Thanks,
Not very logical, but they work

Regarding the led headlights, I posted a few months back on the wiring. I put a toggle switch at the top of the steps for awning lights, now the dash switch only turns on the headlights

It could be a grounding issue too. I would also check each of the fuses with a meter. They could look good but be blown.

Thanks, where'd you get ahold of the awning light wire? I have tried to track it but cannot seem to find them.

I found the awning light wire, in my 25DS, behind a carpeted block below the fire extinguisher, just behind the passenger seat

This one is a 2015 30ds so no carpet or extinguisher behind passenger seat. Any one else please.

We also have a 2015 30DS and ours has the fire extinguisher & carpeted block behind the passenger seat. I wondered what the carpeted block was hiding; maybe DH can take it apart & check it out. Thanks for the info.

I'm sort of confuse, one post talks about Fog lights and the awning
lights. Hummmmm

On my ford F350 you have to pull out the headlight switch to turn
the fog lights on, fog lights will not come on with only marker lights
on with head lights.

As far as step lights and awning lights I have no idea's on them I
have very nice Coleman lanterns 30 or more years old which I
bought when I started camping

Ok, no carpet but a plastic cover. Your right, hooked up a switch and ran the awning light to a hot wire. Works great. Thanks guys.
