For some reason both headlights and fogs were working then i got outta the gym and put headlights on and had left one bad then the fogs didnt come on. Whats up with that?

I'd be checking the circuit - loose connection or something on the left !
Fogs would be run in series I assume so if one goes due to cable trouble the other would as well.

The fog lamps are not wired in series. Bad assumption, mate.

Check the one fog lamp fuse. The two headlights have four fuses, so check them. And of course, bulbs do burn out, and often just one of the two filaments breaks. Is the left low out, high out, or both out?
