Fog light relay

I recently installed some aftermarket fog lights on my tacoma and after a few weeks both lights stopped working. Seems strange to have both lights go out.. the switch is working.. and the fuse looks good..

I think some water might have gotten into the relay after a heavy rain.. it doesn't click when the fog lights are turned on, only when they are being turned off. Is that normal?

second question is about the type of relay.. The current relay says
S11-12-1A-C1
Cont. 30A/14VDC
Coil 12VDC
(attaching a picture)



the only replacement i can find that comes close is S11-1A-C1-12vdc Cont 30A/12VDC

will this work as a replacement?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

 

@ramonortiz55 your good with this stuff.

 

as long the harness will plug into that relay, the yes it is a direct replacement.

 

Not trying to make an obvious statement here but did you check power at the light? If you are hearing any clicking sounds from the relay that means it's changing states. Doesn't mean that the contacts in the relay didn't go bad but I've seen more bad coils on relays then contacts.

 

I haven't checked power to the lights yet, i was waiting to receive a new set of fog lights before i did that.. i just got them.
The old ones were getting fogged up in the rain.. so the manufacturer sent me a new pair
To be honest i don't know much about relays but i thought thats what it might be because it was after a heavy rain that they stopped working, the fuse looks good but i think the relay might have gotten wet because when i took it apart i could see some rust by the connections.. unless they sent the kit with a crappy relay which is possible..

Do you think it could have the fog lights? taking in too much water?
I'll see what happens when i switch out the lights.

 

My guess is the relay is dead. If you have rust inside the relay the contacts are probably not conducting electricity like the should. I would think that if there was an issue with the light itself that you would blow the fuse (short circuit). Or there is the possibility of an open circuit, maybe a burned out bulb. It's unusual for both bulbs to go at the same time but not unheard of. It doesn't cost you anything but time to double check. Either which way you shouldn't have moisture in the light.
