Default rear fog light not working looking for fuse

So my rear fog light isn't working, I check the bulb it's fine, but i can't find where the fuse is located to check that as well.

Can anyone help

I have a 2010 V70 2.0 diesel

I only have one fog light. It’s on the drivers side. Off side.

I don't think there's a separate fuse for the rear fog light on these vehicles... So there isn't much point in looking for one (There's only one fog light, not two by the way). The rear fog light is controlled by the Central Electronic Module & I wouldn't suggest removing those fuses because that could cause all other sorts of issues.

Just for future reference so you know where all the fuse boxes are located in your car, there's a set inside the car underneath the glove box, then another set inside the engine underneath a black cover near the washer fluid reservoir & there's also some in the boot compartment. This site may help you find exactly where the fuse boxes are located:

It sounds like a connection issue. Check that you've fitted the bulb back into the connection port securely.

Thank you for that. I definitely won't be touching that lol, as to the fuse boxes themselves there wasn't an issue finding them, but thanks for the info anyway

If I recall correctly, the rear fog light will be inspected on an MOT. So, you'll have to sort it at some point.

I think the safest bet if you're planning on testing/replacing a fuse in the CEM underneath the glovebox is to disconnect the battery first, then without stating the obvious, know which fuse it is that you need to test (You don't want to be pulling them all out lol). Disconnecting the battery should minimise the risk of fault codes being triggered.
