Post Running Lights Stopped Working

I was sitting at a red light and smoke started coming out of the front and it smelled electrical. Right after this happened the running lights stopped working, but the headlights still work, and the hazards work too. What could this be?

Do you mean the fog lights or the side markers and front/rear markers? If this is on an 86 951, my markers are set left and right, so one side has always been on when I had a problem with a blown fuse. The fog lights are on the same so it might be a fuse or a bad ground or something there. Check the bulbs to see if any of them are bad. I had one blow black stuff on the inside of the bulb and it would meter okay and come on for a flash in the brakes, but it would blow the brake light fuse every time. Changed the bulb and it works great!

Cheers!
