05 Almera fog light not working

Neil_Sedaka

Wife’s 2005 Almera 1.5L hatch just failed the NCT because of a non-working fog light.
Neither the fog light nor the yellow display on the dash are working.

I swapped the rear fog bulb with a working indicator bulb, but that’s not the problem
I checked the 10 amp fuse in the engine bay fuse box, but that seems ok too.

I think I found a relay for it, beside the fuses in the lower dash area.
There seems to be 3 blue Hella relays and I think it’s the top one, as I can feel the click in it when the rear fog is activated.

Access is tight, without removing some of the lower dash and I’m not sure if the relay just pulls out, or if I need to undo a tab somewhere on it.
I suppose it could also be the switch on the stalk or a wiring issue, but I’d like to swap out the relay first.

Has anyone had any experience with this problem?

Thanks.

Have you checked that you have power for the bulb at the rear cluster?

No, but I will.

Thanks.

No power in the rear fog wire (green/red) going to the rear cluster, so briefly swapped out the front fog relay for the rear and it worked.

Now to find a relay (25230 9F920)

Nissan quoted me €32 plus VAT! Ebay here I come.

Sorted!
