Fog light switch - no click but comes on with slight pull.

[loonymoon]

I realised this morning i'd been driving around with my front fogs on for a while looking like a muppet (I don't do this for show!!).

This has happened loads of times on my Ibiza Mk4 because the switch takes hardly any pull to turn the light on, it comes on before the "click" and therefore sometimes when I turn the lights on I don't realise I've also turned the front fogs on. As the steering wheel is in my line of sight to the front fog indicator light i can't necessarily see its on and I don't really look there anyway.

I've also noticed that the entire panel on which the switch sits moves slightly. So my question is - are all Ibizas light/fog switches as crap as this or is mine faulty??

yeah that sounds normal, just be jentle when switching on lights

BTW in order to have rear fogs on you must also have front fogs on too

mine doesnt seem to move and has to have a good click to turn the fogs on. to me the switch sounds faulty prise the switch out and take a look might be a simple case off replacing it
