do you have a towbar? Maybe iffy connections to the 12N socket, if you use Vauxhall's 12N plug then the car's rear fogs switch off when you're caravan/trailer is pluged in so you're not blinded whne rear fogs are on. There's a plug behind the trim at the back of theboot that has all the 12n connections in there, the rear fog light wire is blue/black.
HTH  :y  :y  :y




all assuming both lamps are OK  ;)   ;D  ;D

Remember the wiring loom goes up the nearside boot lid hinge, they are prone to snapped wires there.
