The fog control circuit runs through the light switch stalk then the fog switch and off to the relay at the front under the bonnet, If your rear fog is working then you can rule out the light switch stalk, The fog symbol on the dash is more than likely playing up, so check the fog relay, that can filll with water and rust up, That relay gets its supply direct off the alternator for the actual power to the lamps and is switched from the supply from the dash switch. The other things to check are the w%nk rubber connectors on the fog lamps and the lamps for good connection to the holders, ie not corroded. Good luck ;)

Simple's swap the relay for a new 5 pin relay or another one out of the engine bay which is known to work just to eliminate relay
