Rear fog lights

[nemesis450]

Rear fog lights were working but now don't, have checked the bulbs and they are good. fog light switch is the standard round red light type, power in is good, ground is good. So here is my question, when the switch has only the live and ground wires connected and I turn the switch to the On position the small red light on the front of the switch lights up, as I believe it should. However when I connect the wire that feeds the rear fog lights, the red light on the switch goes out and the rear fog lights are not working. Why is that ?

So it has the 3 wires connected not 4, correct? Where are the fog lights installed? Have you checked the bulb connections for corrosion at all?

Yes I checked all bulbs and connections, turns out that the brand new replacement switch was faulty, all good now, thanks
