Default Fog Lights Not Working

I have changed the relay for the fog lights, the switch is new and checked the fuses and I can’t figure out why the fog lights don’t work, any suggestions?

What year Monte are you working with? Did you check the fuses? Have you validate the voltage and ground are valid at the bulb sockets?

It’s a 2003 SS 3.8. I have checked the fuses on both sides of the dash. I still have not checked for power at the fog lights, that’s what I was going to check this weekend.

this may sound silly, but make sure that the high beams are not on.

The high beams are not on. I am going to check this weekend and see if I even have power at the fog lights. It’s just a work car but it would be nice if the fog lights worked, they do help light up the road some.

Default Resolution of problem

I had my phone die on me and couldn’t get back into the site to let everyone know that the bulbs were blown, it seemed weird that both bulbs blew out at the same time. This car is a rebuilt car that was wrecked and always has stupid stuff popping up. I need another 190,000 miles out of it and I’ll be retiring and it probably will be retired at that time to. Thanks for everyone’s input.
