I have a 98 Outback sport (Imprezza) and recently after a long (4 day) journey to a small town I decided to get a quick fluid and tyre service and have some fog lights installed. Needless to say the fog lights worked fine, but the switch was a real cheapy with no on light that they 'hid' under the dashboard. After returning home I decided to install a proper Subaru fog lamp switch. The only problem is that it came in a small box with no wiring instructions. I am able to get it to work properly (ie switch light and bulb come on) in the house using a small
9v battery, but, when I try it in the car I can't get the switch light to come on but the fog lights come on ok. Or, conversly I can get the switch light to come on but not the fog lights. Anyone come across this problem before or have any ideas? Please, it's so damn frustrating. The switch has 6 leads and I found the following works in the house; top left to ground top right to positive bottom right to fog lamp (which is also grounded) Thanks in anticipation.
