Default Factory Fog Lights Shorted Out Light Harness

I was going home today and when I hit a bump my volt guage went to the red zone. Got home and saw smoke coming from under the dash. Found out the fog light positive wire cut and made ground and melted the wire harness for the front lights. If you have factory fog lights put a fuse on them so you won't melt your wires.
