Question Fog Lights don't work, help!

Last night I took out my fog light switch to paint the bulb red, I accidentally break the tiny bulb but I replace it with another one from from headlight adjustment.
I put everything back and my fog lights don't turn on.

I check all the fuse, inside the engine bay and underneath the driver side and they all look fine. I checked the fog light bulbs and they look ok too.

I have 05 MR so the fog light switch is next to the headlight level adjustment switch.

Please help me out here, thanks in advance.

I am suspecting the bulbs are no good, but filament looks attached, but I've heard even tho they look fine doesn't means they'll work.

I check the bulb visually, but fuses, I took out other fuse and switch them around.
