Just working through a fault with my rear fog lights which I think is probably a simple wiring to the plug issue probably as a result of switch removal when the veneer was replaced.

I'm guessing there should be 2 rear fogs on the Renault lights(!) - one per side? At the moment my rear fog switch isn't working (does not light up) and the rear offside fog comes on with the normal light switch!

Is there actually a wiring diagram in the bible that covers it?

It's been a while since I looked at the rear lights but I recall my Renault 25 (same vintage as the Fuego) had dual sidelights; IIRC the fogs were brake/ sidelight bulbs that lit the 5W filament on sidelights and the 21W filament on fog. So you might expect two sidelights each side, the fog that appears to be lit could be its 5W filament.
Either that or the bulb is fitted incorrectly wink

Sorted - they have dual sidelights per side as you say. One of my side lights was out plus the rear fog switch wasn't connected properly. All sorted. MOT next....
