Ya it has a fuse... just checked it. Not blown. could the relay be bad maybe? How do I check if the relay is bad, or would I just need to replace the relay?

My thinking is the relay is bad being as you said you left and you came back and your battery was dead but your fogs weren't on, or working for that matter, it probably fried the internals of the relay or something. I would say replace it and see if that fixes your problem.

I would definitely check and make sure what that one blue wire is, I wouldn't hook up the new relay til you made for sure you knew what that wire was.

Check these diagrams (the first one is the one I posted before) and compare it to your fuse box, I remember a while back I was looking at an incorrect diagram and I had fuses in the wrong locations and was confused on which fuses actually were the correct locations.

Where I was confused was, see how before Fuses 1 and 12 there is a blank spot? And after Fuses 11 and 23 there is a blank spot? I thought that the blanks were actually where 1 and 12 started and where 11 and 23 ended or something like that. I'm not really sure what the diagram I had said but it had me all confused and until I saw this diagram, I thought I was crazy.
Just double check and make sure this isn't the case with your fuse box cause it would be a waste of time if you got a new relay and you didn't need to. You should also invest in a multimeter, not only to check that one wire but its just good to have around.
