How to turn on the fog lights of Jetta?
2 Answers
To turn on the fog lights of Volkswagen Jetta, simply press the fog light button. Here is some related information about fog lights: 1. Fog lights are divided into front fog lights and rear fog lights. The front fog lights are usually bright yellow, while the rear fog lights are red. 2. The symbol for the rear fog light is slightly different from that of the front fog light. The front fog light symbol has downward light lines, while the rear fog light symbol is parallel, usually located on the dashboard inside the car. 3. Due to their high brightness and strong penetration, fog lights do not produce diffuse reflection caused by fog, so correct use can effectively prevent accidents. In foggy weather, front and rear fog lights are usually used together.
I've been driving a Jetta for several years, and turning on the fog lights is quite simple but has a specific sequence. When driving, first start the engine and turn on the headlights by rotating the switch on the left rear of the steering wheel to the low beam position. Then, rotate the same switch to the end—if it's marked with a fog light symbol (usually a wavy line or FOG label), turning it will activate the front fog lights. Some Jetta models might require pulling a small ring to activate the rear fog lights, but the front ones are the basic setup. Once on, a small yellow bulb icon will appear on the dashboard to confirm operation. These lights are especially useful in heavy fog or dense rain, improving visibility without blinding oncoming traffic. Remember not to use them in clear weather—it’s just a waste of power and annoys others. During routine maintenance, check the switch’s responsiveness to avoid malfunctions.
