I picked up a 2009 TSX with 95K on the odometer last Saturday. It's in great shape although I have discovered the fog lights don't work. Hopefully it just needs new bulbs.

I'm looking forward to learning from and hopefully contributing to this forum.

Hi!

It seems odd if both fog lights aren't working. Makes me think a fuse may be open?

Or, simplest observation: You know they don't work without the headlights on, right? If you try to turn the fog light switch on with the headlights off or on auto, they don't come on.

You can also peek under the front bumper from in front of the wheels and see if they are even connected. Possible that if the bumper has been off, they never got plugged back in.

Hmm, I swear I checked with the headlights on, but this morning I had green lights on my dash for both headlights and fog lights. I don't remember seeing these previously (and I drove the car at night the other day and I know the headlights were on as I live out in the country and I would know if I were driving with only the DRLs). Anyway, the fogs do work. Thanks and sorry for the noob start to this forum. :-)
