Replacing Fog Light on R129

Well, my passenger side fog light went out. I don't know if it is the light, or the wiring.


Can anyone give me some advice on how to check it, and take it off? / replace it? Thanks

David

Interestingly the owner's manual is silent on this, but see the next few attachments.

Check the wiring plug and socket (E5) before bulb replacement. I had to clean and squash the sockets in the connector. Afterwards no problems - didn't need to replace the bulb ;-)

Nice drawings JJ
