Yep definitely the switch, if I use the horn (monetary) it works without issue!

Your not the only person to say that, however, I failed on it last week unfortunately

You need to know the manual, because th testers have their own interpritation

4. The rear fog lamp(s) must only illuminate when dipped beam, main beam or front fog lamps are lit (see alternatives in Notes 3 and 4).

That is the rule, the alternatives are in notes 3 and 4

note 4 says

Note 4: Either of the following scenarios will also be considered acceptable:  The rear fog lamp(s) may continue to operate until the position lamps are switched off, and the rear fog lamp(s) must then remain off until deliberately switched on again or,  An audible warning, additional to the mandatory telltale light, must be activated if the ignition is switched off or the ignition key is withdrawn and the driver's door is opened, whether the lamps in (RS4) are on or off, whilst the rear fog lamp switch is in the "on" position.

but it is only an alternative if you do not comply to main item 4.

Challange it, they are obliged to give a reason for fail, so why does it not meet item 4.

Just keep your fingers crossed the re-test examiner doesn't spot the horn symbol switch operating the fog light.

Luckily the symbols clip off and on so I’ve swapped them round

Thanks, will do if the solution I now have doesn’t pass.

If it’s the savage switch you are running simply swop the switch fronts the emblems pull out to change them. 

And as you say if it’s just a retest that’s all they will check
