Default issues regarding oem/depo fogs

i am having a slight issue regarding my depo/oem fogs for a eg.

basically the jist of it, it keeps popping the fuse on the power line. i did notice that the battery terminal for power was hitting the firewall(thank god no fire and fixed that) but after that i didnt have the right amp fuse for the power wire so i figured id try a 25 amp. i turned the switch on lights turned on for a brief second then shut off, i checked the fuse the fuse was fine. could it be that the relay is bad???? if so can i just buy a relay out of the local car store?

thanks for any help hopefully someone answers and yes i did do a 20 min search b4 hand on this.

It could be the relay. Aut0motive relays are generally pretty cheap at the auto store.

However, it might sound like the fog light switch isn't sticking either.

With the fogs still attached and wired, remove the front bumper and set it down on the ground. Turn on the foglights and see if any more fuses pop. If they don't, then it could be possible that the metal bracket holding the fogs is touching the body of the car.
