The fact that you don't even know if they were working before you changed them makes it difficult to diagnose.

Did you change them to HID? if so did you use the correct ballast? There are a lot of factors that aren't clearly explained in your post

There's only 1 wire to the H1 bulb. Is both light working at all?

1. Check if you seat the bulb good enough for the metal plate to get a ground.
2. Check your connections. (can't be it cuz there's only 1 wire)
3. Did you even turn on your fog switch lol.
