Thanks for the smooth easy to follow video!!!
Would be better if I could see what was going on in the video
Basically
But why show a bulb that's. Not installed
Luis diaz - yes it was installed, I'd recomend to do both fog lights on your kia optima even though the other may be working. They usually go out at around the same time within a couple months of each other to save time.
It's 2022 and my Optima is a 2013. I had to put VERY LIGHT pressure on the screws as I took the out for them to back out. If I pushed too hard they wouldn't start to unscrew.
Heads Up People... If your watching this video because both your fog lights are out the multifunction switch was my problem. Found out they are prone to this.
Did you fix it?
I have the same problem. What to do?
I changed both bulbs but don’t have power.
I can’t get the 3 clips removed. I believe all 3 must be stripped because the Phillips head rotates but doesn’t come out. Frustrating
Looks like he lathered it up with baby oil under there
watched the video and changed my fog lights. thanks. was very useful and easy.
What kind of headlights do you have that are giving the blue color? Are they factory, LED, HID, just a replacement halogen bulb? If replacement, are they the H11B that are in my 2015 and what kind/brand?
Thanks for your interest, those are Factory HID lamps that was on the car when purchased new in 2013.
AGlobal LLC Ok, gotcha. I just got a 2015 Optima that only has halogen bulbs. The bulbs I have always used in my previous cars “Phillips Diamond Vision” which I highly recommend to anyone, are not available in the odd H11B Optima size. Now I’m left trying to find some replacement bulbs that have a good bright white light and with a bit of nice blue hue to them. If anyone out there has any recommendations of an H11B size that fit what I’m looking for, shoot me a message. Thanks for your response!
I'm guessing your probably looking for a bulb with a 5000 to 6000 color temp. Maybe try searching a bulb color temp chart and compare it to other color temps. 3K would be white wheras a 5K bulb goes into the blue range. Hope this helps.

Wheres the fuse that gives power to the fog lights on the kia? I have a 2012
There isn’t one - it’s ran directly off the cars canbus IPS module. It’s a pain when it goes out usually there’s no easy fix for it besides replacing the whole module.
Dose anyone know where the fuse for the fog lights mine just stopped working altogether the other day and I can’t fine the fuse anywhere
My Kia optima 2013 passenger side head light bulb got fused . I am trying to find the right one but I am unable to find it . Can someone help me to find the right one
Just replaced the fog lights on my 2013 kia Optima. Fog lights only turn on when all the lights are on. I can't figure out why the fog lights won't turn on just by themselves like they used to? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Same here.
For my 2013 KIA Optima, I rotate the 1/2 inch sleeve, on the turn signal lever ,on its axis until the white painted arrow points to the fog light symbol. In order to activate the fog lights only, I then rotate the turn signal arm to point it's arrow to the downward aimed light-beam signal.
That works for me...hope it works for you as well!
I bought my 2011 kia optima used... we tried to replace our driver side low beam only to find out it was HID Ballast bulbs... but now there seems to be a short on that side.. what can by done to get back the original unit??
The music reminds me of Bobby's world 🌎 🤣
Where is the fuse that handles the fogs?? Neither light is working on my Sportage, even after putting new bulbs in
Did you ever find out? I have the same problem. Neither light works.
@@Mr51Caveman, I gave up on it for now. Haven't had this verified by the dealership but I read (can't remember where) that they are controlled by a computer cluster that has multi functionality & would run a few hundred after labor. I can't justify that with my current job. Maybe down the road. If I find the article I'll post the link
For a shot on this one I would say check your switch settings first then check both Bulbs, then check Fog light relays under the hood. Just a thought. Hope this helps
Same problem on Kia óptima 2012 where is the fuse?
Fog lamp really location
Where is the fuze for the fog light?
Is it the same on a 2015 ?
kia charges 72 dollars to change both

Not a sxl
Great video! Thanks!
What do you think about the zxe for fog light replacement
Higher temp or brighter fogs lights tend to burn out quicker. Although its buyer preference it can steer you towards what your ultimate preferences are. Hope this helps...
Does anyone knows what do if the fog lights don’t turn on even with new lights?
Check the fuse?
@@AGlobalLLC I did but they look good
@@kevinalvarez3377 Maybe a bad relay?
Where fog light fuse
Hi. Is it same on Kia 2014?!
Some Kia models may differ, it's worth a try
AGlobal LLC thanks
Do you know where I can get that Panel? My screws were striped and that panel broke and need a new one
I'd call around to your local junk yard for the best price that is.
@@AGlobalLLC Having hard time asking or searching because its called different things.
@@TechReviews919 Call around, some have a database that can have it shipped in
