What kind of bulbs? Stock regular halogens or other? also check for leaks to see if water is making its way in. Sometimes condensation will kill bulb life rather quickly. also are you installing the bulbs without touching them like it warns you about? oils will kill the bulb life VERY quick because it will super heat in that portion where your body oils are on the bulb.

Yah I know my mods have nothing to do with my lights. And I never touch the new bulb, and the first ones were stock and the rest have been aftermarket. But the reason I dont blame the aftermarket bulbs is because the other fog light has been working fine. I will just take it in........thanks guys

A word for the wise, if you take it in with the aftermarket bulbs, expect them to automatically put the blame on those before they do anything.

I don't know if our foglamps have a drain hole or not, but don't attempt to "modify" the foglamp in any way. This includes if you've tried to "seal" it from moisture. Sometimes they have to have some type of drain to keep them from fogging up and holding in the condensation.


Good luck!

I've had the same issue, some Neons have had wiring issues like this. Dealership should square you away w/new harness's.
