FOG LIGHTS - DESCRIPTION

1.2 8v, 1.3 Multijet, 1.4 16v

DESCRIPTION

The vehicle is equipped with two additional fog lights, located in the front bumper.

The fog lights are activated via the dedicated button on the dashboard controls unit; when the lights are on, the warning light in the instrument panel comes on.

A relay in the engine compartment junction unit controls fog light activation via a line protected by a special fuse.

The relay is managed by the Body Computer; the energizing of the relay is activated by:

• ignition MAR enablement signal (INT);
• side lights on signal;
• control signal from the button (single pressure)

With only the side lights on, repeated presses of the dedicated button deactivate the fog lights.

However, if the main beam headlights are on, the second press of the dedicated button does not deactivate the fog lights but activates the rear fog lights.

See E2031 REAR FOG LAMPS

Press the button a third time to deactivate the fog lights.

In this case the rear fog lights will also be deactivated.

If the side lights are turned off, the fog lamps are automatically deactivated even if the associated button is still pressed. When the side lights are switched on again, the fog lights do not come on automatically, but only when the button is pressed again.

If the key is switched off (STOP position) and then switched back to MAR, the relevant button must be activated again to turn on the fog lights.

However, during start-up (INT/A), if the fog lights have been activated previously, they will temporarily be switched off; when the key is returned to the MAR (ON) position, the lights are activated again. Therefore it is not necessary to manually restore the command with the button as described above.
