If it's not the fuses, I'd check the connection. When i took my front bumper off there was a connector on the drivers side that my fogs plugged into. Maybe water somehow got in it.

well...i've been told it is the TIPM...a computer that controlls that stuff.....it happened to me cuz i wasnt using a relay...so now i am...i ended up having to splice the power feed into the headlight feed...so now whenever i turn the headlights on the fogs automatically come on...but they work like a charm now...by the way the TIPM is 375 bucks....

Before buying a TIPM, go buy the autoenginuity scan tool with the enhanced chrysler diagonstics... My 4wd went out, and they told me i had a part of my tipm die. they replaced it, and since then, the have warranteed two of them, replaced the transfer case shift motor twice, and front axle disconnect... everything was supposovly bad on the truck still, i bought a $300 transfer case, cleared all my error codes and everthing works again.. except my fog lights. going to scan the truck tonight again.

the scan tool can even turn additional functions on, ie. stereo on or off while key is off, window roll up with key off, lane changing turn signals, all kinds of crazy stuff.
