Did it happen right after you went through a touchless car wash? Those under-carriage washes sometimes can get water into the housing... I lost a bulb to this before I switched over the HID fogs.

double check your wiring and see if theres cut or short through the wires and maybe your adaptor need a little cleaned up!!

Check the connector for any kind of melting/burning issues. We get that a lot at the dealership.
