Fog light problem

I am having a problem with my fog lights. The fuse in slot 43 seems to be fine but there is still no power at the bulbs. When you turn the fog lights on and off you can hear a relay clicking under the dash. But I can't find it for the life of me. Any help would be appreciated.

Clicking would be the relay, should be in the fuse box (not sure).

Look in your owners manual and find the fog lamp relay in the power panel under the steering column. Swap the fog light relay with another similar relay in the power panel. There are plenty of them. If you are hearing the relay operate, then the fog lamp relay contacts are probably burnt or pitted, not allowing any current to get to the bulbs. You can go spend $18 for a new relay or take the bad relay apart and clean the contacts. It is fairly easy to do.
