Default Front Foglights not working - Resolved

Hi Guys,
my front fog lights are not working (both) so I took out the driver side to have a look. Looks ok so I checked voltage at the connector, shows 0.02v! Is there a relay hiding somewhere I need to shake/hit/change?

Thank you

Default Update

Bought a new bulb and plugged it into passenger side and still no light! Checked relay (switched out R3 for R2~a known to be working relay) and still nothing.
Switch illuminates, but would maybe like to check connection behind. no dangling wires to be seen under the valence/bumper, any other ideas please.......................




Thank you

Dave: Have you checked the fuse for the fog, or driving lights?

Also, fogs will ONLY operate with the headlights on, not just the marker lamps.

No I hadn't even thought of the fuse! Just checked it and it was blown. Handy selection of spares in trunk facilitated a speedy replacement and BINGO! I now have working foglights.....


Big thank you to Cohibarandy.
