The fog light is a three-piece assembly. The lens and reflector are
attached
to the light housing with four screws. Sealing the two pieces is a rubber
gasket. The wiring (and lamp)is attached to the back of the housing through
a connector that mates with the housing back.
The following are among the possible problem causes:
1. The housing is cracked;
2. The connector is cracked or loose;
3. The lens edge (hidden by the grille) is cracked;
4. The gasket has "perished".
This is a pretty simple fix, in any case, and will take some investigation
to
determine which component needs attention. If you have a cracked lens
(which
I believe is the most expensive component) it will cost about $50 US to
replace.
Good Luck,
