Default Fog light fuse?

2002 Monte Carlo SS Pace car.Can anyone tell me if there is a fuse for the fog lights? I can't seem to find the fuse anywhere but i have found a circuit breaker for them in the engine compartment top fuse box.Can the circuit breaker be reset or do i need to purchase another one because my fog lights dont work now and the indicator lamp on the switch doesnt illuminate. Any help would be much appreciated

the circuit breaker that you see for it is i think a big fuse i am not a 100% sure it might be one of those big fuses for it. i would price it first and go from there. then replace it it would be cheaper to do and also follow every thing i think there is anouther fuse where the other fuses are in the car

Thanks guys for your input. I found a 15 amp fuse for the fog light relay in the top fuse box located in the engine compartment,it was good.I read on another post that the BCM controls the fog lights.I had mine replaced and reprogrammed by the chevy dealer but maybe they didnt program the fog light circuit to work?? Not sure but the rest of my lights work properly...can anyone update that info for me as far as the BCM is concerned.I couldnt find the fog light fuse in the passenger compartment.I checked both sides of the dash unless it is included in another fused circuit? Thanks in advance for any help with my issue!

Do you have power to the switch and coming out of swith ? Power at the fog lights ,I know this sounds crazy but both blubs could be bad...

Thanks ZJerry for your reply. My fog light switch has power going to it and is illuminated..the only thing is that when i press it there is a green indicator light which should turn on when the switch is activated.The fog lights worked prior to the new BCM being installed and i havent used them at all since i had the new one installed.I'm thinking that the fog light circuit wasnt programmed into the BCM when replaced at the dealer. I'm going there today to see if the dealer can assist me with this issue...the bulbs are fairly new and like i said they worked before the BCM change.
