take off which ever side tire ur light is on and peel back the wheel well... check the connections and plugs or even take out the bulb and inspect it... its not hard to tell if the bulb burnt out

Same thing happened to me. I changed my bulbs and thought I blew one. Came to find out I forgot to snap the connector all the way in to the bulb. I know that feeling though. It's like WTF else can happen and then when you find out was simple it's still like WTF but then

HID bulbs arent like house light bulbs... if it burnt out u'll be able to tell... the black spot on the glass should be a dead give away lol... or at least thats what it looked like when my driver side bulb burnt out on my last car
