Skoda Fabia rear fog light won't go off!

HI everyone, I reall need some advice. Does anyone know why it would seem that my fabia's rear fog is permanently on when my lights on. I have tried every switch, every way possible and nothing changes it. It seems like it is stuck on! Does anyone know how I would get it off or what I need to do to fix it. Thanks in advance x

    The rear fog is turned on by pulling the light switch towards you, are you sure it's pushed in?
  • Yeah it is definitely pushed in. Going to take it to Halfords and see what they say about it tomorrow. When the lgihts are on it looks like the drivers side is mega bright and the passenger side is really dull. Thanks for your advice guys xx

    is it just the wrong bulb in? I see a lot of people who have fitted the wrong bulb into their tail light

    i dont know what Halfords would do, take it to a small garage and ask them or ask if they can recommend a auto electrician

    could be that the bulb has dislodged and it now flowing a constant current to it and not when you switch activates it. or could be your switch is naffed. take it to a garage not halford they aint got a clue! tried fitting a double fillement bulb into my indicator wich was clearly a single fillement bulb noobs i told him was single one but he (worked in a motor factors) and give him the lucas number for it but he resorted to looking on his system, said it was that one and went and got it and seing as it was pouring down i asked him to put it in and give him keys to the car while i stood under the covered way i asked again if he was sure the bulb was right he said trust me im a trained proffesional, when he came running back i started laghing, running past he muttered it was the other one, he went back out fitted it came back give me keys i said trained proffesional in makeing yourself look a foool thank you.
