Exclamation Ballast Nightmare! No headlights!

My passenger side headlight has been out for sometime so I finally was able to order new bulbs (not the issue unfortunately) and came to the conclusion that my ballast was bad. I got my OEM ballasts (2 actually with headlight adapters included to work with) and installed the new ballast, actually I tried both and neither are working.

My driver side has had zero issues, so I decided I'd unbolt the driver side ballast and install the two new ballasts to see if either are working, both aren't. Upset and frustrated I bolt back the original and WORKING ballast on the driver side and now the driver side light isn't working.

WTF. Makes no sense. Is there some trick to making the ballasts work? Sorry that this isn't posted in the appropriate forum, I'm hoping for some quick assistance! Ahhh!

Also, can someone tell me where the fuse for the headlights is? This is for an 05 Sedan 6-Speed if it makes a difference. Also, my fogs work just fine, if they happen to be on the same fuse.
