I figured the switch was intended to control the relay. Was going to trace out the wiring an make a drawing.

The main thing is that the big fused power line goes to pin 30 or 87 on the relay and the load (the fog lights) goes to the other one of 30 or 87. (Convention is power on 30, but it doesn't matter.) Then the other two go to either of the pins left over (85 and 86, which are the coil.) One of them will go to the switch, and the other will go to ground or power, depending on how the switch is wired and how you want the lights to behave (on anytime, on with ignition, on with lights, on with low beams, etc. )
Diagram:
On mine, the plug had the 30 and 85 wires reversed from the factory. This meant the relay coil was energized permanently and the lights drew their full power from the switch, not the battery connection.
