2000 4runner limited, fog lights don't work!

I checked the fuse and its good..... no juice at the lights. Anything (quick) to check or just going from lights back checking the wires?? Thanks!

have you tried troubleshooting the switch? assuming there is a separate switch, I don't know if there is or not.

to isolate a switch problem, manually ground the negative side of the coil on the fog light relay with a jumper. If the lights come on, it narrows it down to just that

Huh? Can you explain? I'm in the same boat, no juice to the fogs - I checked continuity on the fog relay, but i'm confused at how to check using the method you described...

toyota uses switched grounds to run the lights. No ground to the relay no power.
