15 amp just like it says.....maybe the install might have a short in it or the relay might be bad.....either way you really dont want a larger amp it may melt down the wiring or worst if you use a larger amp......return them back to wally world....the fog lights....say their defective

Assuming the lamps have standard 55 watt bulbs, you shouldn't be drawing more than 10 amps. Something isn't right and putting in a bigger fuse is a DREADFUL mistake.
