How old is your battery?

You might have fried whatever module controls the fog's( BCM? )when you jumped it. The fact this happened after the battery died and you jumped it makes me think something got cooked. Hope not. Might be something as simple as the fog relay is stuck open?
Electrical problems are about the hardest there is to diagnose over the internet. Only sounds are harder.

How cold was it where you were last night? We had -10 degrees for the past few nights and several vehicles in my neighborhood died cause of a combination of old batteries and cold. Some plastic parts can. Become brittle if it's that cold and if there is an arc when jumping a car that said parts could break. I would check you fuse box under the hood for a damaged relay. Hope this helps.

The truck died from the light being on. The light didn't turn non when I tried jumping it. It was about 5 degrees or less last night. I brought it to the dealer and the we're swamped so I asked if they could just Un hook them for now until I go back

Eastbeach's patriot has an toggle switch. It has 3 buttons on it, it's where you control the led ring. The left button is ring color, middle is main power and the right button is fog light power on and off.

Do any of the buttons work? Such as the led ring button, or the main power for rings and fogs?
