Default Fog Lights Stopped Working

This is for my 2011 HS250h, but I am posting here because that forum gets no traffic as they sold very few of that model. My 2011 HS250h with 67000 miles, that was rear ended last August, and hit both front and rear. I now think I need to contact the body shop as they replaced the front bumper cover and installed a new parking sensor system. I do not recall when after the repairs I noticed the fog lights were not working, but it was months later. However, I did pass State Inspection right after the repairs were done, but they could have missed the fog lights issue. I bet it is related to the accident.

Both lights apparently stopped working at the same time. I pulled one bulb and test 2 other bulbs but they would not work. I checked the fuse, it looked okay, and I tested another new fuse but they will not work. When I hit the fog light switch (same stalk as in RX) I hear a relay click somewhere. I have no idea where this relay is or its part number, even after surfing at Lexus South Atlanta Parts using the Google. Think I may call the local dealer for a part number after speaking to the body shop, unless someone has a better idea. I suspect all these vehicles use the same relay for the fog lights.

Adding a data point here. I had the same thing happen to my gen 1 RX around 100K miles. It was the relay issue also.

Called the body shop and they said to bring it in and they would take a look.
