Hi All,
Today I fitted a New front Bumper with Fog lights,my car didn't had ones before,so I fitted them today,and connected the plugs which where hooked behind the headlights,and I put a (15) fuse in the fuse box which in located in the engine bay in number (6),then I used the PP2000 to activate them,which I did,and it gave me the fog light light on the speedo,but the foglight didn't went on :(,so I wanna know what goes wrong,even though I tested the fog lights bulbs before I fit them,and they worked fine,so please help me.
Tim

Test to see if the +12v is reaching the fogs, if it is. Then is a earthing problem.

Think this has happened to mine. My car had working fogs before but now changed the front bumper and one side is now not working! Pain in the ass.

Well you didn't mention the other side of the problem,which is "What if there is no +12v feed reaching the fogs??is there is a relay that I need to check,or they don't need relay??

you say you used the loom from behind the headlights? Would this not be the other headlight loom that is in most 206s for either h4/h7 connectors? And not for fogs?

2006 should have crystals as standard, so the h7 will be in use.
So the spare one should be the 2 pin, grey connector for the fogs.
Test to see if power is reaching the fuse like I said.
Could always check the amps when you turn the fogs on, to see if it changes.

As Lee said,I have H7 headlights,and I have the Grey plugs ready in the loom for foglights,and it's 2 Pin and fitted 100% on the fogs.
