Exclamation Power Seat, Dome Light, Door Light etc not working anymore

Hey whts up guys..

I have an 08 G35xS and today i tried replacing my vanity mirror light with a de3175 LED.. i took the stock bulb out and tried putting the LED in it's place.. the LED lit up for 2 secs and when i tried to fit it into the holder, it turned off.. i figured the lights just turn off after a while so didnt pay any mind to it.. the LED didnt end up fitting in the stock holder because it was too short so i just put the stock bulb back... went upstairs, came back to my car after an hour and got it the driver seat...

the driver memory seat did not adjust to my setting, nor did the steering column go down.. the map lights dont work, the door lights dont work, the side mirrors dont work, the auto function on my windows dont work (i have to hold the switch up/down).. the audio steering controls work though however.. everything else works fine (navi, ac etc)... also i noticed under the settings for comfort and convienience, the option for "lift steering wheel on exit/entry" is not there anymore.. i checked the 10A fuse for electrical parts underneath the driver side, i also checked the one by the battery.. i disconnected the batery for 30 seconds.. still doesnt work..

what happened.. and what do i do??

dont' sweat it... your fuse went out... most likely because the led bulb had a short circuit in it or something causing your fuse to blow... just replace it.. maybe like 50 cents...

and don't pull the battery for any reason, you will just cause bigger headaches... since that will end up resetting your headunit (depending on model) and you will need to enter the password.

i don't know your car wiring diagram but there should be a main fuse.... take it to the dealership but don't let them charge you insane amounts of money as its 99% a fuse which is less then a dollar.

if you have a test light, you can easily test all your fuses.....

You blew a fuse. Don't even waste your time going to the dealership. Same thing happened to me. Take it to any Autozone or Kragen and tell them you blew a fuse and you need to replace it. They will help you out most definitely.

McNasty.. I replaced the electrical parts 10A fuse underneath the driver's side.. That didn't solve it.. You wouldn't happen to know which fuse to check?
