Default interior lights dont work

I replaced all my lights inside except the ones on the left and right front doors. Those i did yesterday and when i replaced them i think i caused a short circuit and fried the fuse so now none of my interior lights turn on. I know where the fuse box is in the car but am unsure how to fix this problem. HELP ME PLEASE

what was the reason to put in all new lights throughout the interior? did you replace with factory bulbs or go with some new LEDs?

ninja729 I can see your frustration to get your lights working-but you are not going to make many friends here with those comments.
In any case your owners manual will tell you the location of the fuse box and location.

just trying to narrow down your problem man. no need to get all bent out of shape

NOW that i know you did LEDs (what i asked in my 1st reply) we can help. Some LEDS are polarity specific.. Are yours? Are they installed backwards?

Also, the fuse boxes can be found, with appropriate layout, with a simple look in the your owner's manual.

Evidently it's 'so much work' to flip to electrical section in your owner's manual... but quicker to ask on a forum!

Carry on.
