Exclamation I effed up.

I was replacing the light inside my glovebox, the tiny bulb, and my girlfriend had been in the drivers seat just before and the lights were left on along with the ACC. So imagine me sitting there attempting to put this bulb in when CRACK a spark hits and the led if shot and now a bunch of interior lights don't work.

Glove box, the light above the glove box, the radio/climate control lights, the clock light, the cig lighter and the light around the cig lighter..

SO i was first scared that i shorted the car, then I calmed down and took a look at the fuses. TO the left of the dead petal all the fuses in there seemed to be visually fine. Inside the engine all seems well...

So i came on here and looked and learned to try to disconnect the battery and reconnect. After that, no luck. I am out of luck i think boys. I have one more fuse box to check the one under the batter I hear? Can anyone tell me better how to access that..

And what are the chances I have shorted out some stuff or really messed up the car.

Thanks for reading

Yea just because it looks alright doesn't mean it is. I don't think the ones under the battery have anything to do with dash lights? I'm not 100% sure though.
