On my ‘06 987, the fog lights switch will not turn on the fog lights, nor do the little lights by the switch 

I tested the Fuses 5 and 7 on the top row, they are good. 

Somewhere, I read that a faulty headlight leveling sensor could do this ??  What is this ?
Lastly, will the PWIS detect the problem ?

Solution found !

Went over to SMS in Huntington Beach. Branden took a light switch out of another Boxster and tested it in my car. Sure enough, it was the switch. 
Also learned how easy the light switch comes out.

Ive ordered a replacement from Pelican. Free shipping….
