Default fog light problem

my fog lights went out, last week i know they were working and i just noticed them tonight. the dealership put them in for me (free). i doubt the bulbs burnt out, how do i go about checking to see if the fuses aren't bad/out of place?
my car is a 02 accord btw.

not sure if its oem, all i know is that the dealership put them in. so if dealerships carry the oem brand then it guess its oem.

and how do i go about checking them?

I insalled OEM foglights in my accord coupe last week. Check the fuse, which should be located right on the side of the battery labeled "fog light fuse".

the light is on only when you trun on the low beam right?(no parking light, no switch, not on when high beam on,right?)

they are most likely to be oem

both blub cant blew out the same time, check the fuse first

could be a loosely connected grounding point if the fuse is good

oh yeah the ground is between the foglights behind the bumper. and there's another connection on the driver's side near the ABS module that you should check.

Well the install manual on mine said to install the connector under the intake accordian hose, but in the pic it showed the ABS module. There is a plug under the intake, but it doesn't fit.. but it does fit the one near the ABS. If everything seems okay, take it to the dealer..it should have some type of install/product warrenty.
What probably sucks is if a relay went bad (located near battery, and driver kick panel.. kinda small and un-noticable though)
