LED fog light issue

[leungalv]

Curiously, only one of the lights work at a time. The drivers side was out and the passenger side was working fine. Then after I installed the driver side today, the passenger side doesn't really light up any more and is very weak. The fog lights are led.

Thoughts? Thanks

Is this OEM fog housing with LED bulbs? Or some third party kit?

Few things you can try. What happens when you swap the bulbs? (driver -> passenger, passenger-> driver). Or if you have the halogen bulbs, see if they work.

I guess I'm not really thinking haha. You're absolutely right, that should have been the first thing to do.

I have a condensation issue with my driver side fog on my 06 and no clue how to fix it because there's no leaks and it's led no heat bulb.

did you have to drill out your OEM fog light hole? alot of people drill out or make some kind of modification to the housing to insert the LED bulbs are they are bigger then the OEM bulb... another thing could be a crack in the housing OR a seal is doing its job wether its on the bulb or housing.

no i never had to drill it out the bulb fit in perfectly with no issues....the condensation is only on the driver side not the passenger which is leading me to believe that either the bulb wasnt put in right or that their is a leak in the sealent causing air to get in

Didn't have to do that :)

I haven't responded much since I haven't driven my car much these 2 weeks, and forgot about it hehe

so what's the proper process to change fog lights to LEDs? is it fairly straight forward to complicated? Any thread on here or video with step by step instructions?
