 Fog lights not working.
My fogs lights quit working on my 2013RTS-sm5. I was wondering if anyone had idea knows which fuse or if there is a fuse link in the circuit.
I was also wondering where I could find a service manual for it.

I don't know if this is the case in your situation, but I discovered the fog lights on my 2014 RTL only work at night. I wonder if they're designed that way?

The fog lights on my 2011 and 2014 RT's both are powered from a rocker switch on the tank panel. Far right. Pushed forward--(P down)--and they are on.

May be a dumb question, but the fog light switch is on, right?
Does the horn work? If so, it's not the fuse. Check for loose relays in the fuse boxes, a bad fog light switch, or loose connection at the fog light switch. Or maybe both lights burned out at the same time, or one has been burned out and you didn't notice until the second one burned out.
Get a manual from canammanuals.com.

Motor also has to be on for the switch to work.

That's right. They're one of the items fed through the load shedding relay.
IrishRon, do the heated grips work? If so, the load shedding relay is working. That pretty much leaves just the fog light switch and connections, or the bulbs.

Now that you say the heated hand grips they have stopped working. I will check the load shedding relay. Thank you for the idea IdahoMtnSpyder.

And how much at a dealer?
One of the hardest decisions you'll ever face in life is choosing whether to walk away or try harder.

I love this site. Just lost my fogs, came here, yup, grip heat is out too.
Do you have a number on that relay from Mouser by chance?
Never mind, I found it 303-1AH-C-R1 UO1 12vdc. $4.56 now, and 4.99 to economy ship. Still way cheap.

Replaced my rocker switch
I had a problem with the rocker switch for the fog lights. I purchased a new one, installed it, and the fog lights work perfectly now. I know it probably would be covered under warranty, but it was quick and easy install, so I just did the replacement switch when changing the plugs on my 2014 RT Limited.
No fuse ever blew....just the rocker switch would not make contact.
NOW, I have a fog light out on one side ....decided to replace with LED's.

Well, that wasn't it. Replaced relay grip heat and fog lights still out. Drat.
