    First - does your fog lights switch illuminate when you push it?

    Second - check the fuse in the underhood fusebox labeled fog

    If your fuse blows as you as you insert it or when you turn them on you have a bulb that's blown/shorted together or a wire pinched shorted to itself or ground.

    On your 97 if I remember correctly you can go from the bottom or remove the bolts holding the slash guard. It's been so long maybe someone else can chime in.

    Stick your head under your car where the fogs are. Right behind it you will see the harness. Turn it until its loose. Pull it out. Bam! Ya might even get away with just sticking your hand under there if ya know what to feel for.
