[W126 Coupe] Headlights Beam Height Adjustment Switch - not working(560 Euro)

[Robert Karl Stonjek]

Dawid,
on mine, there is only a rear fog lamp on the driver's side (this is how it supposed to be according to the user's manual).  One click out activates the front fog lamps, the second click activates the rear fog lamp.
