Fog Light Wont Turn Off

[borsiin]

Came out from work today and my left front fog light was on. Strange i thought and drove home. The fog light still refuses to turn off. Tried fog light ON on the stalk and both lights come on. When turned OFF the right one turns off while the left one is still on.

Tried removing fuses in both the engine bay area and the ones in the drivers compartment but no fuse is listed for the fog lights in the manual and i did not find the right one. So desperate to not flatten the battery over night i removed the bulb.

So WTF is happening? Why on earth did the left fog light decide to be always on? http://citroenC3owners.com/images/smilies/icon_question.gif

Welcome to the forum.

 

Has this just started to happen, did you use the fog lights earlier in the day ?

Fog lights normally can not be switched on if the engine is not running, so it must have a wiring fault or a relay has stuck on to provide a permanent 12 volt supply to the light. Since the car is under warranty it has to go back to the dealer. 

 

Our C4 it has cornering lights so that when turning the fog light on the inside of the corner will come on - I could not find anything in the C3 handbook on this but on the C4 it is programmed on/off through the menu on the radio. It only works when the engine is running and the fog lights can only be switched on when the engine is running.

I have never used the fog lights since they ar as effective as candles anyway. The C3 doesnt have cornering lights as far as i know, mine doesnt have it atleast. Will call my dealership today.
