Fuse? Make sure the contacts in the fuse box are clean and bend the blades a little for a good fit

White relays under the bonnet...
Quite dear from the main dealer but if you want them to work first time every time well worth changing...
Take them out and refit them first see if that gets them working...

Have you checked for live feeds and grounds with a meter?

Need to narrow it down to, are you getting supply from switch to relays, are you getting power out of relay to the lights, are the lights earthed well.
