fogs not working, what do I check??
I got my fogs on and wired by what appears to be right, I can hear the relay clicking when you push the button on and off but I noticed the switch light is not coming on and my fogs wont come on. What can I check or do next?
I did make sure all the connector points are connected good.

If they are knock offs, you might want to check the bulbs. I had some on my car, and the bulbs went bad almost right away. Almost more headache than it was worth, so ended up ripping them out and putting them in the garbage.

on mine i had the same prob.....check the connection where the wiring hooks up to the fogs...my positive and neg were switched so i was hooking up black to red and red to black....got some needle nose took out the wire and switch it and re plugged it and it worked! good luck
Ok I got it working, wheeew! It was poor connection where the plug plugs into each fog light AND the solder joints were poor also where it splits to go to each fog. So what I done was re-solder at the joints and went to auto zone and got some male-female connectors and cut off the plugs on each fog AND the plugs that go to each fog and just kinda made my own connection. Now they are working fine and install was nice and clean, pretty good fitment. Hey no need and paying more than double for the Passwords when you can just get the ebay ones for a fraction of the price and do minor work to get them to work, besides when installed, look exactly the same...
Once again thanks for all the help guys, for the write-ups, links, so on and so fourth

UPDATE!!
Ok. So I got the lights working well I waited till dark to align them up, well no joke, while I was looking right at them, one just went out and wouldn't come back on, so I thought it was a blown bulb. So I took it apart and come to find out the black wire INSIDE the fog light (its what goes to the metal thing you press down to take bulb out, I think negative wire) had a bad connection so ONCE again, I cut it off and made my own connection in there. Now they work again. I think my total problem was a combination of both.
Just thought I would share this for those who are having problems they will know what problems I had so they can check theirs....hope this helps
Here ya go, car's dirty so just bare with me.
