I heard that if you have recently changed one bulb? its worth changing the other and may sort the pob..I know i had to do this recently with a rear brakelight bulb...something to do with voltage detection...I may be wrong but its worth a try to get that light out. I know how annoying they are!

Bumping an old thread, but I myself have this problem. The only broken bulb is the left foglight. Dunno how to exchange this, or if its possible - but possible the foglights are on the same circuit?

you seem to have to change left and right bulbs at the same time they have to be the same type and age it seems!, i changed one side light bulb and the warning light would come one a few min after turning the lights on even though they worked fine and the 4x4 would turn off at the same time,
when i was having the clutch done i told VTS and they said they thought theyd had it before and checked back and found that if they changed both the bulbs at the back and it was sorted, both needed to be the same

Al the lights are on the same circuitessentially a bulb out warning light.

Could be as simple as a brake light at the rear which your probably not checking due to having to be in the car at the time.

the fog light is a simple procedure to change its more or less just like any other bulb
