I tried to change my front turn signal socket and harness and spliced the wires together wrong and blew my turn signal fuse. I removed the harness and replaced the fuse. Turn signals work except for that one side where I removed the spliced on harness and socket.
So now my dashboard and tail lights are not working, but my headlights and brake light work. I've checked the fuses but maybe I overlooked one. Can anyone please help? Already got pulled over.

Hi,

Do any of the taillights work? Also, which front light was being repaired?

I attached a pic below from a wiring schematic. I don't have the fuse layout, but I need you to located all the fuses in the pic and check them. The pic is of the fuse box located under the hood of the vehicle. In addition to checking the fuse's condition, make sure there is power to them

Here is a link you may find helpful:

One last thing. Have you repaired the light that needed a new socket and is it now working?

Let me know.
Joe
