What could cause his problem?

My friend has a 98 Se

About 3 months ago, he got into an accident, after which his headlights, his hood and his bumper were replaced. About 1 week ago, the driver's side foglight burned out. Tonight both of his low beams went out, and the drivers side fog light began working. His high beams are fine.
What ould be causing this? I think its either a fuse or a bad connection.

Maybe he replaced a fuse with one with a higher rating and it caused his bulbs to blow and/or melted some wires?? Either that or loose connections somewhere

It's either a wrong size fuse, if so then the fog light wouldn't have came back on as the fuse would've blown. Loose connection somewhere, at the back of the fuse box maybe...

I fixed my problem. I took the corner light of and took the bulb off. Everything was coroded because of the water. So I cleaned everything and put a new bulb and everything works perfect now.
