A Genuinely Important Design Fact Worth Knowing First — Nissan Note Fog Lights
Before assuming a fault, this is genuinely worth knowing: Nissan vehicles are commonly fitted with only a single rear fog light, not a matching pair on both sides — a deliberate design choice, since two illuminated rear fog lights together could be mistaken for brake lights by drivers behind. If only one side of the rear cluster lights up when the rear fog is activated, this is genuinely normal and by design.
It's also worth knowing that on some models, the fog light fuse is located in a genuinely hard-to-find spot — behind the battery and underneath the air intake pipe.
Nissan Note Fog Lights: Rarely Used, Easy to Forget About Until Needed
Most Nissan Note owners barely use their fog lights outside a handful of days a year, so a fault can sit unnoticed for a long stretch — until a properly foggy morning exposes it at exactly the wrong moment.

Nissan Note Fog Lights: What It Does
Front fog lights are angled and positioned to illuminate the road surface in low visibility conditions without creating the glare a standard headlight beam would in fog. Some higher trims of the Note integrate fog lights into the same housing as cornering lights or daytime running lights, which affects both the part number and the complexity of any repair.
Fitment & Compatibility
Nissan Note Fog Lights: Generations & Fog Light Type
| Standard trims | Halogen fog light bulb as standard |
|---|---|
| Higher trims, later model years | LED fog lights become available further up the range, genuinely a different assembly and connector from the halogen units on lower trims |
Not every trim level of the Note comes with fog lights fitted as standard, and the housing design often differs between trims that have them integrated with other lighting functions and those with a standalone unit. Always confirm your specific trim's fitment before ordering. Whether you're sourcing a replacement fog lights for your Nissan Note from a dealer, specialist, or online marketplace, always check compatibility against your registration or VIN before buying, and confirm you're ordering the correct side — driver's side (RH in the UK) or passenger side (LH in the UK) — since these are not interchangeable.
