Does xenons have a fuse?

Came to start my car today and both my xenons wont turn on, yet they worked fine yesterday.

since i doubt both would fail completely overnight im wondering if ive popped a fuse or something just as simple.

These are factory preface light xenon headlights by the way.

Can anyone assist as its getting dark and i want to go to work

thanks in advance

They should have a fuse, yes. Either in the top of the glove box (there's a card saying which fuse is which) or in the boot, right hand side behind the trim. I'm afraid I can't tell you which right now.

However, if it turns out that your lights are knackered, I have a set here that you could have for a modest fee.
