Those fogs are on a separate harness, that plugs into the main harness in the front trunk.

Post photos if yours are different.

Here's a simplified view of the foglight wiring.

The diagram that you sent has the same wire color connections as my round fog lamp relay mounted to the far left of the fuse panel, however my fog lamp switch has two wires that were attached. A green connected to terminal 31 mounted to chassis ground and a yellow wire connected to terminal K and then through the front bulkhead to a small 1"square relay mounted to the inner fender just left of the break fluid reservoir. I can't find any info on this small relay. 5 terminals numbered 87,86,30,and two 87 terminals. Does any of this sound familiar? Thanks, Jeff

I'm sorry the fog lamp relay is mounted on the far right of the fuse panel.

See the schematic spoke posted for the relay schematic

85 & 86 are the relay solenoid control
30 is the terminal that 12v power is fed into
87 is the normally open connection (made when energized)
87a is the normally closed terminal (made when de-energized)
