Angry E350 (2009) Headlight, fog light, turn signal passenger side not working-pls advise

2009 E350 Base My passenger side lights including the fog-light, headlight main beam, and turn signal stopped working all at the same time. I have no warning light on the dash panel. Driver side is working correctly. The driver side is fully functional am very sure it is not the bulbs. Could it be the front SAM? if not any ideas? Does anyone have a diagram of were the passenger side wiring harness goes to. I have put a 'tone' on both connections to driver and passenger side, I can get a tone on the connection to SAM module for driver-side, but no 'tone' on the passenger side. I am lost on how to proceed.

Thank You!

Thank You so much. I did not know I had a passenger-side SAM. I just received driverside SAM in the mail this afternoon. I replaced and coded it, it's like following a wizard, I can now actuate through SAM modules both lights, therefore it must have been the driverside SAM. However, now the side marker lights do not work, and I have a warning light on the dash "open or short circuit E6/1 E6/2. From your diagram, it looks like the terminals of driverside sam? is it possible that I misplaced a terminal connection. thank you thus far for your help!

Revisit coding if memory serves there may be an option for USA if not in SAM check CGW.

Thank you for the direction. Fixed a few mismatches in left and right SAMs to show normal' and not 'LED'. Confirm both SAMs are set to USA. Still no side marker lamps working. Do you know which terminal number on the driver side SAM for E6/1 and E6/2? I do not see a specific label 'E6'

Do not have access to wiring at this time, tone each marker to identify connector/pins @ SAM.

I finally fixed it. Here is what I found. I toned the wire from markers and found that the plug that goes into socket No. 12 came out when I originally replace the driver side SAM due to the passenger side headlight not working. I plugged it back in made sure it was firmly connected.
Thank you for you does of common sense!!
