Lightbulb I really help on this one! it's annoying

So my passenger side side maker decided to go out so I bought some new ones thinking I can just replace the bulb and I'm good but that didn't work either.. i put a brand new bulb I bought from orileys so it's not GM but it fits perfect and it still won't turn on..

Is there a fuse I can check? The factory bulb is out!

I can't imagine the right side being a different fuse than the left. I would take a look at the wiring from the inside, looks like you've been in there before for your fogs. Might have done something then?

I haven't recently touched anything on the foglights but I'm sure there is a fuse somewhere I have to check.. i just don't know where

Is your wiring or connector damaged? I can't recall this one at the moment, but, a lot of the lamp circuits don't have fuses.

I'm gonna unplug the aftermarket harness since I never had the RS headlights when I bought my camaro, and plug in the factory harness and see if it turns it on, if that's the case then the other light should have gone out I'm not sure.

Ah. New harness. Should have mentioned that.

Each side is run through a separate circuit in the fascia connector.

Yup should I unplug and plug it back in and see what happens? Thank you btw, it looks so ugly especially since I made the LED halo rings match the side marker color so it looks cool, then I walk over to the passenger side and wow its out.. it just went out forsure. It as good the day before.

Absolutely. Temporarily pull the new harness out for testing.
