Default Lighting ISSUE!

I was tinkering with the side marker the other day to replace the bulb when suddenly it clicked off on me. I was replacing the bulb, turned it on, then it stayed on after like 5 mins they turned off. Now, my markers dont light up neither will my side lights(The smaller bulb in the headlight, not the turn signal). I need help, I'll probably take it down to toyota later in the month but if this is a possible DIY repair, then I'd like to do it myself. Any suggestions?

look inside under the driver side there is a fuse box there little black box once you take it out behind it, it should tell you which fuse it is. if not theres a fuse box in the engine area.

I have replaced the TAIL fuse and still nothing, should I replace the bulbs too? It's ironic that both the tail running lights AND the smaller low beam headlights stopped working on the same day, at the same time though.

Oh never mind I tested it in daylight and it did not seem like It did anything, but at night it works GREAT! Thanks ANT1 and Krazematik!
