Fog lights won't turn off...

[emhymas]

I have a 2002 PT Cruiser Limited Edition. I got in my car on Sunday before I even put the key in I noticed my fog light were on. It was in the off position so I turned them on and back off again and they will not turn off. The only way to turn them off is if I turn on my left turn signal. I called a dealer and they said it was the multi-function switch and quoted me $250 to fix. So my first questions is are they right about the switch? If I don't get it fixed could it cause more problems? And lastly could I just pull the fuse on my fog lights and not use them? I really don't have a need for them at all.

Thanks in advance!

WOW!!!! This happened to me last week.

Yes, it's the multi-function light switch (hi/low beam, signal lights, and fogs). Yes, $250.00 sounds about right. my dealership quoted me $230.00, but I got it for $100.00, cuz of my service contract.

Yes, you can pull the fuse. I have a 2001 and the fuse is the Number #8 15A of the interior fuses next to your left knee. Problem is, that I don't know what else that fuse covers.
