Quite often Mitsubishi leave parts of harnesses in place but leave out other bits. I'm sure there is some economic logic to this - saving having to make different configuration harnesses.
The result, though, is that, if you want to use those existing parts of the wiring, you may have to complete the other parts yourself. Sometimes this is as simple as adding a relay and/or fuse, other times it means that you have to do some hard wiring. To make it more difficult, not every model Triton comes with the same factory harnesses and these can change from time to time.
So, what to do?
First, search "online manual" on this forum. Follow the link to the Russian site and then look at the wiring diagrams that include fog lights for your model/year, or the nearest you can find. Copy/print the wiring diagrams and go out to your vehicle and locate the relevant parts. If there are pieces missing work out what is required to fill the gaps.
Implement same and then come back here to report what you've done so that others may benefit and you become, albeit briefly, a forum legend.
Now don't get the idea I'm telling you to suck eggs. The reality is that only you have access to your vehicle to see what you have or don't have and what you have others may not have. Classic examples of this include the air conditioning fan plug in ML and MN - some have it, some don't, and the fog light switch wiring in the steering column in some ML VRs.
Mitsubishi make a plug'n'play harness for driving lights in the MQ. Maybe they do for fogs as well, or it can be duplicated.

If work is so terrific, why do they have to pay us to do it?
