Which jeep manual? My owners manual doesn't specify and my Haynes shows the '91 and newer, this is a '90/renix. Thanks.

Behind the passenger side headlamp. Has a light green with tracer wire going in along with a red wire. Output is light green with tracer and a black wire.

Well I didn't find a relay, I unplugged one of the connectors to the fog lamp, had no voltage, traced that up into a wiring harness near the relay center (what are those two plugs for?). So I pulled the dash apart and took the switch out and checked it. Cycled it about 50 times and the readings got better each time. Plugged it back in and checked it and wala, it works!! On to the next issue (in a new post!) Thanks for the help!!
