Check the wiring bundle where it goes into the driver's door (between the
hinges). I'll bet the painters messed it up somehow.

There should be a ring on the turn stalk just inboard of the main light
switch to turn them on and off. There is also a fog light relay and a
couple of fuses involved. I have occasionally run across web sites that
have the factory service manual for this car available for free download.
Your best bet is to find one of these and trace the wiring against the
wiring diagrams in the book to see how much of it you actually have.
