The Fog lights won't turn on.
The light on the switch does not light either.
One second they worked then nothing.....after 25 years, I suppose that's pretty good. I know both lights are good.
I suspect, since the switch light now does not light, that it must be lack of power to the switch.
I don't see a fuse.
The main lights and everything else is working.....wtf!!
Is it common for the switch to fail?

I don't know if you'll be that lucky. Most likely the switch is burnt out because I think they run the power thru the switch. Probably need a new switch and to run them on a relay. What wattage are they? Are they stock? Maybe the lights/bulbs are bad.

x2 on that. About 5 years ago, I came across an XJ with the Up Country package and was oblivious to how rare these things are to find... Could've had skids out the **** but my thought at the time was, "Oh, I'll find another one sooner or later..." How stupid of me. Haven't seen another on since.
