I seem to have a side light which doesnt have a function

 

At least none that I have found

 

From the front centre of the car

 

Yellow fog/side light in one unit

Indicator/ ????? in one unit but two sections the rear one does not work

 

I cant get it to work ??

What is it ??

 

I am being dumb I know it ...someone just tell me ??

 

Its the one nearest the road wheel on the picture below VVV

Thats because there is no lamp in it! it is a fitting for the US market!

The lens has a amber cover and acts as a marker lamp will post pic when I

can find it

Here you go I had US spec indicators fitted on my import, but they do not have lamps fitted unless they were for the US market. The covers were also changed to make the indicator assembly look sleeker.

Hi Allen

 

Great looking car BTW

 

My lens is not the same as the one in the photo

Plus my lens has bulb in

As I said in my original post its the lamp nearest the wheel which never lights ( I think ) and it has a bulb ( a long thinner one ) and its clear the amber part is nearer the front of the car ...in your picture the amber paret of the lens is nearer the wheel

 

Whats mine for ????

As Alan said, you appear to have US spec indicator units fitted, hence the bulb in the small part near the wheel. They are the same pattern as J-spec but incorporate side marker lights. This is because US spec front fogs do not have side lights built in.

 

I fitted these to my UK spec car when I did the US spec front fogs (before I had the 99-spec bumper). The little light near the wheels is the side light but as you have side lights in your j-spec fogs they are not connected.

 

You could connect them to your side light circuit and have 4 side lights if you wish.
