Fog lights come on even when they're not turned on

Post by Olegario »

This started happening recently. My fog lights (or auxiliary lights, or whatever they're called) come on whenever the night headlights are on, whether by light sensor or by turning the light knob one click. It used to be I had to turn the light knob one more click for those lights to come on. Any ideas what I should look at or look for?2003 plain vanilla Vibe + after-market cruise control

Did you notice it start happening after you installed the cruise control or did it exist prior?

Totally unrelated, but it's nice to see someone from SB on here :-) I lived there for two years while my girlfriend got her undergrad from UCSB. I miss it dearly at times, particularly La Super Rica (Mexican restaurant).

This started happening long after the cruise control was installed.

Operator error. Took a better look at the multifunction lever. I'm deleting my login and will re-register under a different name in a different city. Thanks for the help.
