lol i meant try to switch the positive/negative sides of the bulb. It happened to me like 3 times when I'm changing the bulb, the new ones don't work because they were made in china and they have inverse positive/negative sides

lolwut?? There's a switch just next to the headlights switch, its for the fog lights. You have to turn on your headlights, AND your fog lights switch in order to make it work... don't tell me you didn't know that lol
