Anyone have a wiring diagram of the HID harness installation? My HID fogs are not working properly and I need to install the wiring harness.

You have HIDs that were working, and they aren't working now?

Yes the right side will not come back on. I have swapped everthing from side to side with the same results. The last thing to upgrade is the wiring harness.

Did you swap it all at one time, or piece by piece? Try swapping bulbs from side to side and see what you get. If it doesn't fire on the good side, then you know it's the bulb. If it does fire on the good side, and the one that you know is good doesn't fire, then you know it's the ballast that is bad.
Let me know what you find.

Check fuse #6, and micro relay #39. These control the fog lamps.
Also, put a volt meter on the side that isn't working and see what readings you're getting from that side.
