Default parking lights dont work..

hey guys. so i got some leds today and as i was installing some new parking light leds the led turns on and then goes out after a split second. this was the passenger side parking light. i went to try the drivers side and that one did not even turn on. i checked to see if there was any power going through and the volt multitester showed there was no power going through. so i went through every single fuse in the interior drivers side, engine bay drivers side, interior passenger side, and engine bay passenger side fuse boxes. all of them were working just fine. so im wondering what could be going on with the parking lights? any suggestions?

there is one hiding fuse box inside the engine bay fuse box, you have to unclip it and pull that fuse box up to get the parking fuse, it happened to me before, good luck

I believe fuse is on driver side. The same thing happened to me the first time I was installing led parking lights. Except it took me a day to think about looking into the fuse box lol. I thought I effed something up and needed to take it into the dealership to have them take a look at it.
