Default Boosted X2 .... Almost- well I need help Fast..

Okay guys looked at a Black 2000 SSEi very nice but a few things wrong with it. Valve covers are leaking a little, and the foglights wont come on, is the foglights a common issue and easy to fix? Can someone get me the fuse number so I can check the fuse. I searched for it and didn't really find much about it (but the search still confuses me) and of course the oil pressure gauge is stuck. I need help quick because we are getting the car tommorow if all works out.

By the way car has 83k Every option including the disc changer. I am getting it for 7500.

This is the front fuse block.

Fuse 24 and relay 29 handle the fog lights. More often than not, the lamps are just burned out. The SSEis didn't have the same issues with the fogs as the GXPs. Does the indicator lamp light when they are turned on? You may want to bring along an extra bulb as a test.

I assume that you know that the oil pressure being pegged is likely the oil pressure sender.

Edit - If the DRLs aren't working, perhaps they pulled the fuse to disable them and thus the fogs, also.

More than likely it'* just the bulbs. I had to replace both my foglight bulbs when i bought my car. Oil gauge pegged sounds like a oil send unit. Nothing major.
