well, depending on what type of car you have, you should be able to manually turn them on by going another notch up on the knob you turn to turn the lights on normal. if you own a VW passat like me, just pull the knob out and it will turn foglights on.

Bulb Troubleshooting (check in this order):

· Check Fuses

· Check Bulbs

· Check Relay(s)

· Check Light Switch(es)

· Check license plate light bulb and wiring

· Check trailer hitch wiring harness

· Check all wiring harnesses and wire

Most likely its the fuse or a burnt bulb breaking the circuit. Sometimes the license plate and/or the trailer hitch is wired into other circuits and can cause issues in other areas. Sometimes its wires grounding out somewhere on the vehicle. See sources and related links below for bulb information. See owner's manual for location and identification of fuses.
