Default Hawk WRX - One rear fog?

Got an MOT tomorrow and one of my dipped beam lights was out so replaced this but there is still a dash light complaining.

I've checked everything and all the lights are working - am I right in thinking I only have one rear fog light? If so then I'm at a loss, should I reboot the battery?

All lights are working - the only thing I noticed is the new dimmed bulb I fitted is brighter than the other one, could a mismatched pairing cause the dash light warning?

I think so as when one of the front fogs went the same dash light came on and then off when I replaced the bulb - for some reason it's staying on this time - the ****!

Is it not the auto levelling light failure that you are seeing??

I don't recall a bulb out warning on my hawk at all ...

That might make sense, I just replaced the bulb that was out and not the other - could it be because they are different strength / types? one does seem brighter

Could just be a different brand of bulb. It's difficult to say.

Can you show us a picture of the warning light that's up?

Hawkeyes have HID dip and auto levelling system that goes wrong. I seem to recall warning light is orange with an icon of headlight.
