Blinker Bulb

Did you replace both bulbs now ?

Those "fog lights" are typically referring to as the front bumper running lights or front turn signals.

Yes, I replaced both running lights (blinkers) bulbs with brand new 1157 and I am in the same situation.

Firs thing I would do is get a circuit tester like this:

You need to use that and see if the bulb socket is getting power. To use the tool, the clip needs to be connected to a good known ground. Quickest one I know of in that area is for the trunk dome light. To get to it, the front grille needs to be removed. To get it out, there are "finger slits" on the sides of the grille - that's where you can get the best grip. I personally used a scredriver as a pry-bar up against the sides (not on the glass) of my headlights and gently wiggled back and forth.

Don't get frustrated taking the grille off. If it hasn't come off in a long time (read: "EVER"), it can take a bit of time, strength, and willpower. Just be patient and you'll get it! Once the grille is off, there will be two wire plugs behind the driver's side of the grille - one purple (I think) and one that is purple and white. The purple/white one is the ground. Clip your circuit tester to the purple/white one, and make sure you clipped it to the side of the wire that goes to the rest of the car - NOT the side that goes to the dome light.

Something occurred to me as I wrote this: you may not be able to "clip" to that ground - the wire may have a plastic male/female end on one side. If so, create a jumper wire and clip your circuit tester to one side of the jumper wire and the other end of your jumper wire to the ground.

Anyone know of an easier ground for him to connect to rather than having to do all that ?

Try swap swapping the bulb sockets from left to right and see if the problem moves with the socket assemblies. the socket harness pigtail is only about 8 inches long too it's connector.
