Hello All

I have a Cayenne and the last 2 days it has faulted on warning saying "Check Fog Lamps" even though the fog lamps are illuminated. It has never faulted like this before even though they are aftermarket HIDs.

And this morning i had the lights off and it still faulted out...is this a job for the PIWIS tester/Dealer

it still will not go away..ideas? ;)

The fog lamps in the back are o.k. ? If yes reinstall the original lamps and trey again, i don't believe that an O.P.C. will start working on non original items.

Can be a question of resistance or consumption in extreme temperatures like you said.

i had them installed on mine even though the advertising claimed that it would not set off the fault code and it would take 15 minutes to set off the code so i removed them. Regular bulbs produce much better light with my new aero kit lamps anyway
