For everyone with fogs! - Honda Prelude Forum

Ok this is weird! Decided to throw in a bulb in the switch. Works great and all but now I get like a buzzing sound from the relay. If the switch is set off, the buzz is loud and clear, then when I press the switch on the buzz stops. It does it occasionsally when I turn the hi beams on which invariably turns the fogs off. Am I nutz or what, anybody have this problem?!!? The relay I bought from Majestic Honda in the fogs section.

did you put the right bulb in the switch?

The bulb that was in my hazard indicator looks identical so I swapped that one with the burned out one in my fog switch for the time being.

and the relay doesn't make the sound with the bulb out of the switch?

looks identical and are identical are completely different... check the part number first

Correct

I'm with Brian. Take the bulb out and check the part numbers.

Ok so I checked the burned bulb that came from the switch and the identical looking bulb from hazard switch. I dont see any part numbers or anything. I dont think Honda would use ten different bulbs like that. I think they are all the same.

If I am wrong where can I find these part numbers?

I found these part numbers for 4 bulbs used for our switches here. .
35850-S04-003 BULB (BLUE) $4.41
35850-SZ3-911 BULB (GREEN) $2.93
35851-SS0-003 BULB, NEO-WEDGE $3.23
35851-SM4-003 BULB, NEO-WEDGE (CLEAR) (TEC) $4.79

I know that the bulb I bought from the delearship for the hazard light was one of the first two part numbers in the list. Not sure which one.

I cannot find any reference to the bulb that specifically go's to the foglight switch which is located right next to the hazard button. I would suspect that the bulb would be the same. Number 8 on diagram. Go to Majestic here.

Here is a diagram of the bulbs.
