Lights in door wont work

So I had a bulb in my passenger side door go out so I bought some new LED lights to replace both drive/passenger side lights. I replaced the passenger side first since that was the one that was out but when I put the new bulb in it wouldn't work. Tried the driver side which was still working when I pulled it out and replaced it with the LED no light. So I put the regular bulb back in and it wouldn't come on for iish! I've checked fuses and none are blown. HELP cause I like my lights to work!

try a different fuse...just because it looks fine doesnt mean its working condition. Ive pulled a number of non-"popped" fuses that were dead but looked fine. Most recently....an INT ILL fuse in a 96 car

Glad you listened to the folks who told you it was a fuse, eh?
