Hi, Has everyone seen the new V9 of the IVA Inspection Manual (M1) Dated 17/06/2013? Link for download: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/iva-manual-for-vehicle-category-m1 They have added a new hoop we have to jump through regarding the rear fog light interlocking with the lights / ignition. It states: Note 4: Either of the following applies: 1) 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, 2) An audible warning, additional to the mandatory tell-tale light, must be activated if the ignition is switched off or the ignition key is withdrawn and the driver's door is opened, whether the lamps in (RS4) are on or off, whilst the rear fog lamp switch is in the "on" position. This looks like we either need to come up with a buzzer circuit or use a latching / clearing relay from the light circuit. I have also seen there is a company called Cartek who have a module to provide this functionality on Ebay for around £36 with shipping. I could not see this info' in the forum so thought it will be useful to anyone coming up towards their IVA. Best regards Paul
