Fog Lights not working

Ok I hope someone can help. I just put new bulbs in my fogs they are still good and I never touched the bulb without latex gloves. I checked the fuse they are still good they both stoped working at the same time does anyone know what could be the Problem?
Thanks for your help.

okay...this MAY sound stupid...but....did you check the switch? NORMALLY I leave my fogs on ALL the time....the only time they go off is when I put on the brights.....could you possible do the same thing? and turned the switch off and forgot?

just a simple suggestion

If you answer no to both of the above, you may have a problem in the relay. It may think the brights are on all the time (as you said the fuse is ok) and not let you turn them on. Try putting the stock bulbs back in and see what happens.

If the fog lights are the same as the MP5 (H3's), I'd double check that the fog light lead wiring is pushed far enough back into the plug & make sure the retaining clip / ground is installed correct.

I put in new bulbs and they worked for a while so I know the ground clip was installed right. They just both went out at the same time
