Fog Lamps not working

[2001I30MAX]

I have 2001 I30 and the fuse for fog lamps keeps on blowing. Does anone know how to check the cause of this problem?

You have a short circuit somewhere. Power to the Fog Lamps goes from the battery, to the fuse, to the Fog Lamp Relay and then finally to the fog lamps. The short circuit may be before the fog lamp relay or downstream, or even in the fog lamp. The fog lamp connector is behind the bumper. You need an ohmmeter then check one area at a time with respect to chassis ground until you identify where the short is.

It would be better if you download an FSM (Factory Service Manual) and using the EL (Electrical System) chapter, locate the components and trace the siring diagram.
