check the plugs then. the last time both my fogs were out, i was putting in an HID kit and i forgot to "up" my fuse to 35AMPs; the fuse kept blowing.

if both fogs are out, chances are the fuse is blown. check the fuses behind the coin pocket to the left of the steering wheel on the knee panel.

Seeing that you are new to the forum, did you just buy the solara?If the solara is new to you, is it possible that you didnt know of the separate switch for the fogs to turn on?

also like krook mentioned, if you installed a particular type of HIDs, you may experience a fault in fogs not working at all.

Keep in mind, the fogs only have the option to turn on/off when the headlights are on (not the Daytime Running Lights). If you want the fogs to turn on without having the headlights on, you will have to rewire some things to have Independent Fogs... there is a tutorial on how to do this in the Tutorial section of the forum.

Just for info, I've had the Solara since 03! Now is there another switch other than the combination switch that turns on headlights and fog lights? If there is, I am unaware of this switch! As far as the fuses go, fuses are good (behind coin holder compartment). Bulbs are 9006 (Sylvania), same as OEM.
