Evo 9 fog lights not working

Hey guys, I have an SSL 9 with fog lights. They were working when I got it. Car sat at the shop a while and when I got it back like a year later now the fog lights won't come on.

Yes the head lights are on, the fuses are good. I don't know where the relay is , I cant find a wiring diagram, there are no loose wires in the connector, and my headlight angle motor works. I noticed when I hit the fog light button I don't even get the indicator on the dash . At one point I had to change the fuse box by the drivers leg under the steering column so I'm not sure if replacing it with one from a car without fogs may have done it? Suggestions?

Why did you have to change the fuse box? Sounds like there are larger wiring issues at hand here if you needed to replace that fuse box in the first place

Evo 8 USDM is the wiring diagram you want. Evo 9 diagram is for a non-USDM car

It's a long story . Wiring issue is fixed . Previous owner sucked is the short version of the story. Regardless I could use some help from someone who has experience with the fog lights Please.

After looking over the wiring diagram I noticed that the fuses and relay are in the front fuse box under the hood. So it is not related to replacing the under dash fuse box. Also the switch doesn't light up when I press the button. So I'm not sure if it is the switch itself that went bad or something with the wiring to the switch.

Edit: had to the chance to check the basics before work this morning and the relay was missing. When I put a relay in place they work. Problem solved.
