fog lights short circuit?

[chisel]

Help! The fog lights on my 2001 passat estate sport do not work and MOT is imminent, I have tried changing the fuse which worked whilst the engine was not running, I turned them on and off a few times, all OK. Later when out driving I switched them on and they have failed again. Is this an expensive fix at the garage as my mechanical/electrical skills are very very limited. Any help/suggestions much appreciated.

I take it you mean the front fogs??

Only the rear fog light is required to work for an MOT..
