Have you checked the manual? It will tell you whether its behind the glove box or on the passenger side of the trunk. Mine has a diagram attached to the underside of the trunk lid with velcro.

Mine too, but I have not found where all the pictograms are explained. It's not in manual for sure - does anyone has at least link to web where we can find it? I found just pieces of informations..

@wi8123 - BTW: I doubt there are separate fuses for each foglight, if I understood you correctly only passenger side is not working right?

I checked my Bentley manual and found no reference to fuses for the fog lights. The schematics (ELE-372, -373) show direct wiring from the light module to the fog lamps.

Other things to check are the connections at the light module, the fog light wiring itself (broken or pinched?), the wiring connectors at the lamp sockets (loose or dirty connection?), and the lamp sockets (bad/dirty connection at base of bulb?).

I though the car's light module (LM) rapidly sampled the lamps for continuity right after the engine is started ("pre-drive check"), and subsequently less frequently... no bad bulb message?

HTH,
