Fog light switch... question.. pic..

one thing i was wondering about as i was looking at my x-mas tree of lights on the left side of the dash is.... i think on my 06 the fog light button didnt light up... but on my 07 (as pictured) looks like it lights up... does everyones light up? if not, good mod to do.. i swear i used to fumble looking for the button

It lights up on the '06 also. I wish it would light up only when on, but it lights up all the time, whether the fogs are on or not.

Maybe the LED for the fog switch crapped out?

I don't really care if my inverter control switch lights up because anytime I'm using it, I have the dome light on anyway. The lit mirror switch would be nice though.

I see a VSC disable switch on your dash, was it an option on your truck? Mine does not have it.

Thanks

My guess is your bulb was burned out. I've replaced the small bulb in both my fog lamp and Locker switch. They don't last worth a ----!!

All fog light switches on all years are supposed to light up. if it didnt, then there was something wrong with it.

So what I am gathering it lights up all the time along with the all other dashboard illumination.............

it's just that there's no on/off type light that comes on when the fogs turned are on, the light stays the same. At least that's how it is in mine.

Right. It would be nice though. I originally modded my fogs for "anytime on" but have since re-modded them to be only on with either low beams or high beams. Now at least, I do not have to think about whether they are on in the daytime or when I do not want them on.
