Fog lights not turning on

[jlafoon99]

Hello everyone,

I bought my first ram in July (2015 bighorn hemi 5.7) and have had no issues with it up until now. Generally, with my light knob turned to auto, the fog lights would be on along with the headlights. Then, starting on Tuesday, they just wouldn’t turn on. I’ve tried with the auto setting, I’ve tried just the setting for the fog lights, the lights themselves don’t turn on and neither does the light on my dash. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

Start with the basics. Bulbs good? Check for corrosion in sockets. Fuse. Make sure they're getting power if you have a meter, etc.

Is the light on the dash showing them as being on? Not sure what you mean by setting for fog lights. Fogs are turned on by pushing the center of your headlight switch.

My headlights turn on when the left knob is at the right position. There is no "push" or "pull" option on the knob. The fog lights never turn on either.

Picture of headlight and fog switch? All of my Ram's have had push on the headlight knob for fogs. 2011, 2016 and my 2018.

There has to be a switch somewhere for the fog lights. Your headlight switch is not the typical OEM configuration for Fog lights if it doesn't have the center push for on for the fogs, so whoever put them in had to put in a switch to turn them on. If you look I am sure you will find it.
