Need Help: Fog Lights

I have had my HID Fogs for 2 years. Yesterday, the passenger side went out. I am not sure if it was the bulb or ballast. I decided to put new H11 Halogens and get rid of the HID Kit. It turns out the H11 isn't working. I took my time not to touch the glass and used gloves as well. Tried 2 brand new sylvania bulbs. The Driver Side HID still works fine.

Is it possible the wires are fried? It was a 35 watt kit. Is there a separate fuse for the driver side?

check if there is power by using a voltage tester..

i believe there is a fuse, check both sides of the kick panel.

Potz, if one fog light is working, would that rule out the fuse? Is it possible that there is a separate fuse for the passenger and driver side ?

You guessed correctly - There is a separate fuze for each fog light. You can find the passenger-side fog light fuze in the passenger-side fuze box. Move the passenger seat back and take a look at the passenger kick panel under the glove box and to the right. The passenger-side fog light fuze is in fuze position #3, and it is a 10A.

It was the fuse! My HID's are blowing the fuse, switching back to H11.

Thanks for the help!
