Fog light electrical issue.

Has anyone ever had their fog lights all of a sudden just stop working? They stopped turing on one with my car. Ive checked all the wires and electrical connections and there doesnt seem to be a problem. I took the fog light housings off and checked them with an battery in my house and they work fine. So it doesnt seem to be a problem with the bulbs/wires. It seems like the car isnt producing enuff electrical power to the actual wires.

Anyone have any info or had this happen to them?
Thanks

Don't forget to look into the relay that controls the fog lights. The relay lives in the long black box under the flat-ish plastic crossover connection for the intake at the front of the engine bay. Check to make sure that the appropriate wire is getting a good ground when you flip the switch, that the appropriate wire is getting voltage that would drive the lights, and make sure the relay is working correctly, both hot and cold. Remember this relay is right on top of the radiator, and could easily be failing due to temp by now...
