Default Hi Guys. I have a fog light issue 2015 Accord

Not sure if they ever worked. But just recently I installed LED bulbs in headlights. Looks great. Then I decided that I want to do the same to my fog lights. To my surprise, fog lights don’t come on. I went to check the #4 Fuse engine bay, and it was blown. I replaced it with the correct 15a and it blew again. Now I’m not sure if the light setting was on in the car when I replaced fuse, but pretty sure it didn’t matter. Anyway, wondering if there is a short? Also If so, does both sides have a wiring harness and is there a harness that connects those 2 harnesses together. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thx.

Also, if a harness is shorting it, can I fix it, or do I have to replace it? Last question, Could it be the bulbs? Both are out. Would that short the fuse like that? Thx again all.

Hey check right at the foglight where the pigtail plugs into the LED Bulb or HiD bulb and see is there a pinch in the wire also make sure the bulbs that you're using aren't defective I would suggest using HID if you're using them neither.

Also make sure the bulbs aren't plugged backwards because I've found its possible and it could blow the fuse as well. Also test it before you put the bumper back up also be sure to turn the fog lights on the switch is the 2nd toggle on the light switch.

Will do. Thx for responding. I never replaced fog light bulbs so I don’t know how they could be backwards but I will check for pinch in Wire. Thx again
