My civic fogs keep flickering on and off during the night when Im driving, so I am pretty sure it's the relay thats causing the problem. Ive searched on here and searched the internet, but I havent found much to help me with this. Have any of you had to replace the relay of your civic fogs or oem fogs. Any help would be greatly appreciated

When a relay is failing it usually doesn't flip on and off.

Most likely the problem is a loose wire. With the fog lights on and hood open, track the wires from the lights back checking for bad connection by jiggling the wires to see if the lights cut off.

Could be something as simple as a bad/loose ground; or loose battery positive connection.
To replace the relay its pretty easy though...just plug in old one, plug in new one...done. That said i have not replaced mine since I installed the fogs 2-3 years ago.

Yea, I just went to look for a bad connection. Its right next to the relay, because if I touch it, the fogs will either shut off or on. And yea, I saw that the relay was pretty simple to swap out
