Hi, my rear fogs have never worked and my front ones have decided to just die on me, As I know nothing about electrics I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction as to what to check/do? cheers

Is that litterally all there is to the fogs electrics, the bulbs, the wires, the fuse and a switch? how can i test if its the switch? apart from the obvious and buying a new switch, please forgive me these may seem like blatantly obvious questions to the more experienced of you but I litterally know nothing about electrics.

Look at the back of the lamps for corrosion on the connections, also the earthing point. The rear bumper collects all sorts of crud from the wheels and I used to find rear fogs covered in mud.

If you look at the disco wiring diagram and you will see the MFU is involved so that may be faulty.
