Driver Vanity not working after LED

So I just installed Led's to my Vanitys, wired them up, everything looked good, but I an only get the passenger side to work, I swapped bulbs/assembly and both work, so its something w/ the drivers side contact or just no power. DOnt think its a fuse, otherwise both sides amongst other lights would be out.
Any ideas? I'm bringing a volt meter out in a bit to check it.

hmmm. did you try flipping the led over on the drivers side? leds only work in the correct polarity. you have have been unlucky enough to have inserted them the wrong way both times. if you've tried it, i don't know what to tell you.

Ya, I tested both of them w/ a seperate battery to make sure the polarity's were correct, both boards work, just on the passenger side, not drivers side. Kinda out of ideas of what to check other than the actual wiring, I guess I'll have to do that if I get nothing w/ the volt meter. (little work project since I'm stuck here all night ; ))

So I tested it w/ a voltmeter, and nothing, so I double checked the fuses and all good. So I'm guessing I fried the wire somewhere? Going to check the service manual for wiring when I get home, but it goes down the pillar etc.... So I'm guessing its going to be a nightmare to find ; (
