Fog light question

Have a quick question for everyone. Hopefully someone else has had this issue and resolved it but I know this is a stretch.

I recently replaced my low beams and fog lights with LEDs. Everything worked great after the install but today I noticed that my outer fog light on each side is out. This confuses me because it was working fine and now the same light on each side is having the same issue.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Did you replace 2 bulbs on each side? Takes a total of 4 I believe.

I realized that it takes 4 bulbs after I only ordered 2. Now my problem is I’m getting condensation on the side I opened.

Bet you don't have a tight seal between harness and lens assy. Were you able to use OEM gasket or is it a DIY? Most often condensation is due to water vapor getting inside of lens assy and LED's don't produce near the heat of non-LED's so vapor collects instead of being evaporated. Gotta have an air-tight seal. Just a thought.
