Fog lights fail to turn on

So, I figure something like this is as good as any for a first question.

My fog lights fail to turn on, and I'm not all too sure what's causing it. They used to work before, so I figured maybe it was a fuse. Wasn't burned out, but replaced it just to be sure. Nothing.

Then figured it was the bulbs, they looked fine, but I ordered 2 new pairs just to be sure. Plugged them in, still nothing.

The odd part is, the wire behind the light gets a current, and the switch also gets a current, but ONLY when my lights are off. The moment I turn my lights on, which is the only time the foglights turn on, the current is lost.


Front right, has a current



Switch connector, lights off



Switch connector, lights on



Switch connected, with lights on



Left is still connected, no light from it
