w204 Fogs???

Hey,

I am newbie in this forum.

My car is 2008 w204 220CDI. I am wondering how can I get rid the function of Foglight going on while turning.

(While I'm driving in city and turn left the left foglight goes on and so on...) You know what I mean.

Sorry for my crappy English

Thanks guys and gals!!

Turn your headlight dial all the way to the right or turn on the DRL via instrument cluster settings menu and leave dial on 0 (12 o clock).

The active turn fog lights only work in AUTO mode. You can also turn on your DRL's through your instrument cluster settings menu and leave the switch on 0. Your headlights will be on in day and all lights will turn on at night, fogs will not turn on in 0 mode.

You sure about that? I've grown used to the method of just turning my switch all the way to the right and tugging once to turn on the fogs, but as I recall, in Auto and low-beam mode, the corner illuminating fog function still kicked in. And this really bugged me cuz I had HID fogs installed and they would flash/spazz out whenever I turned the wheel.

I think I'm gonna go try this tomorrow just to make sure I'm not losing it. Lol.
