Need help, fog light issue!!!
So I have a set of baja lights from walmart and I wires them up about a month ago. Now the one on the drivers side won't work, I checked the ground and that's not it. What could be wrong???

wal mart... just kidding. Check the wires going from the switch to the light itself. Get a good Digital Multi meter and check the wires going to each to see if they are getting power, getting the same power and if they are grounding properly. Check the switch to see if it's functioning properly also. Hope this helps.

just buy some pro comp explorer ones form 4wheel parts, they work great and are a good price for the 100w ones

well if i remember correctly the lights are wired together off the hot wire coming from the battery with a distribution port like thing. and then each light has a positive wire coming from them with a bullet like end to go in the distribution port....did you wrap everything in electrical tape? those little rubber covers that came with them are crap, if you didnt already i would wrap all the connections in electrical tape, they could be grounding out somewhere. BUT, if its only one side then either its disconnected, or the bulb is bad. With the way it's wired up there's nothing else it could be.
