Positive (+) wire to one side of light bulb, Negative (-) to other side of light bulb. Positive (+) attached to 12 volt source, Negative (-) attached to ground............light bulb lights. If no lighting happens, either (+) or (-) is missing from the bar fight :char
If the relay feeding the fog lights has power in two places, and the lights don't run then you have either a failed relay or failed wiring harness out to the lights, or a bad ground for the relay. I'd wager on option #1, the relay. Just because it clicks does not mean it works but if it clicks, the ground and signal power to the relay are making it. Relay should have a positive hot all the time and a signal wire that turns on when the fog lights are turned on AND the high beams are off. There is alos the chance it has two positives hot all the time and uses a ground to signal the relay to close. I dunno if the GEM module operates the fog lights in your car, if so that adds more fun. If the GEM runs the fogs and is screwed up, I'd be looking to rewire the system to run the fogs all the time sans the high beam cut out.
On a side note, I sandblasted my 64.5's fuse box today, the tabs are all spiffy looking. Now I need to start testing it.

You might be able to switch the fog relay with another on the car to see if it helps.

Tell them to read that, should help the troubleshooting as you can bypass the fog light kill switch (with high beams on). The cut out drops the ground to the fog lights. If your relay stuck shut, the ground will be interrupted and not allow the fogs to work.

One of the guys hooked up a multi meter or whatever and tested the ends and everything had power. There was power going to the light bulbs. He also use a light tester and made the brand new bulbs light up, but for some reason the power wasn't getting to the light bulbs. :shrug
I'll go try that. Can't hurt!
We cut Pin #2 off. Did nothing.
They have a really good feeling its something to do within the multi-function switch. Especially after I told them how my wipers get stuck midway on my windshield. Which really sucked today because it's been raining ALL day. Not fun to drive with wipers in the middle of the windshield. If that switch controls turn signals, high beams, wipers... then maybe something inside is broken. My fog light switch is located on my console under the radio so I can turn them on/off. Maybe the MFS has something crossed and it's not letting the fog lights come on because it doesn't register that the high beams aren't on? Of course if that was the case, then cutting pin #2 should have solved that issue since cutting it allows fogs to stay on with high beams.
If it is the MFS, then its only $50 on Year One and takes about 30min to change.

If there is power at the bulb plug....provide a temp. ground to see if they work.

Washed and waxed both stangs today and the Honda hybrid. It was in the 60s and nice out. Also pulled out the cluster in my DD to check out a few problems. And finally after about a year of tweaking, I got the alignment correct on my hood.
Managed to take apart two 65/66 blower motors to scavenge parts from but destroyed parts from attempt #1. Got the brush plate out without killing it on attempt #2. Cleaned up my sandblasted blower motor from my 64.5 and painted it. When the paint dries I'll reassemble. The brushes are not great but being in Florida the A/C blower will be new but this heater motor....... who cares??????
