Looking at your profile, yes, your fogs are factory.

Fogs won't turn on. - 6G Celicas Forums
Got the wiring diagrams from Griff...I shall check everything out tomorrow afternoon. Or Saturday.
Check the relay.

That works quite well, thanks man.
Batman, your diagram looks different than mine. Maybe because it's a GT?
so the problem is that you car dies, when you put the fogs?
or your fogs simply not working. can you detail?
I have read the whole post, and i really want to know your real problem. Im Interested.

That shouldn't matter. The relay photo he's showing you isn't under the hood, it's under the dash panel, in the footwell against the fender ("A" pillar). If you remove the piece of plastic that's next to your left foot when you're driving, you'll see all that stuff. Sorry I misdirected you about it possibly being under the hood w/the other relays - it was a guess. Us lowly 94 ST owners didn't get factory fogs

Okay. Just as added safety and awesomeness, I always had my fogs on. My HU also turns on automatically, so when I turn on the accessories, I have a HU, the fogs, and the headlights coming on. This created stress on the battery, and one day I did this and the car died. After turning everything off, the battery came to life again and it was fine. It happened again a few days later, but now I've just learned to turn my car on before I do all that. Alternator is fine, I'm getting the battery checked today. But since that happened, I haven't been able to turn my fogs on. Headlights and high beams work just fine. Pretty sure it's not the physical connection to the fogs, most likely it's electrical.

Fackdammit! But thanks, I'll remove that...I only looked at that little relay/fuse panel that comes off, so all the left-side plastic has to go? Because I didn't see any of those fuses when I opened that part up. No wonder I didn't have any luck under the hood.
BTW Griff, I don't think they're stock after all...stupid me. The switch isn't on the stalk, it's where the fog button would usually be...but it's owner installed, I think.

well if they are not stock. Just do like the wizard of oz. Follow the yellow copper wire. More likely the wire is aftermarket and it may be rubbing itself against metal. therefore there might be a fuse inside that vent that went off. and when it shorted it must have drained the battery.

Wire from the fogs to wherever it goes? That would involve removing the plastic guards under the car...alright, I'll give it a whirl.
You have a '97, meaning your car is prewired for those fogs. All you need is the stalk w/ fog switch, the relay, and the fogs which you already have. The plugs for them are hanging behind the fog light itself. If the used the factory wiring for them they would only come on when your headlights are on.
I would suggest you get a stalk and relay and hook up the fogs the way the should be, that way you know they won't cause any problems.

I see your point, but I was fine with the way it was before so I don't see a need to change it, just wanna get it right again.
Then you need to figure out how they are currently wired in so people can properly help you troubleshoot the problem.

I get your point...but I'm assuming they're factory wired like you said? Only the switch is placed above the left side vent.
again...

Don't assume how it's wired and make sure, people can't help you properly with only information based on assumptions.
Check for the relay Dustin (Batman) mentioned on pg2, take the fog lights out and see if they're plugged into the stock wiring, follow the wiring from the switch on the inside and see where it splices into.

Flipped the switch for poops and giggles and they magically came on...so it's not a fuse. Now the problem is figuring out where the wires are loose and not properly grounded. Would it be advisable to keep them off since I was told that an electrical fire could be started? They've worked properly ever since though.
