Ok here is the deal.... For months I thought that I had a burnt out fog light bulb on the pass side. Apparently, I did not. I bought 2 new bulbs and replaced both bulbs and re-inistalled the fogs. The pass. side wouldn't work. So then I switched the fogs (drivers side in the pass and vice versa) and then the pass. side worked and the drivers side didn't. So my conclusion is that my pass. side foglight itself isn't working... Why would this be, can I fix it? Thanks

I guess im confused...cuz it sounds like it would be the wire harness on the passenger side...not the actual fog light since when you switched them the fog light worked.

no no, the original pass. fog doesn't work. When i switched the fogs places the original drivers side light that WORKED still worked.... and the original pass. side light that i put into the drivers side harness still did NOT work

Can you clean the contacts for the bulb inside the socket? Or the pins where the harness plugs into the fog light?

How do you have the bad foglight grounded? Check that ground wire, clean it with a wire brush, I bet that's your problem.
