Question HID fog lights not working???

Hey, guys I have a 97 SC300, and I just bought some 8000k fogs, and they wont come on. When I first installed the driver side fog, it came on no problem, then installed the passenger side fog, tested it, and it came on as well. After getting everything put back I started the car and of course the fogs don't come on. So I searched the boards and found that I was blowing the stock fuse and I needed to buy a fuse relay...

So i bought one off of ebay...maybe thats were i went wrong
(I have the link but cant remember if thats a no no on this board)
anyways...
I just installed the relay and still nothing? Has anyone else had this kind of problem? I'v rechecked the relay fuse and the factory fog light fuse, and all the connections again and again. I don't know what else to do...

do you have it apart again? I would say go backwards and unplug one side to see if it works. Check to make sure all your connections are secure. It is possible the Ballast or the bulb went bad. I had a new ballast go out on me when I installed my HID Fogs a few weeks back.

What kit are you using?

I cant say how good the relay off eBay is. I would PM Cliff from Mobile HID (pm = Cliffud) as I know he has the wire and relay harness and its not that expensive. He has great and fast service on top of it!
