thanks, yea I have that fog lights switch on but the little orange light doesnt turn on unless I open my headlights.

the only lights that come on are the parking lights and the only time fog lights come on is if i open teh headlight switch.

Yup, just turn the headlight switch one turn so it only turns on the rear lights but doesn't open up the headlights, and then the fog lights are able to be turned on.

You might look at your owner's manual and see if you can program your lights not to come on when you use your key fob. That will save some life in your headlight motors too.

it does say that you can program it so they wont come on when you lock/unlock your car.
