Default one headlight out

Im thinking I shorted the wires...

Got rid of the plug thinking I could convert it to h1....but I'm an idiot and that didn't work and now I'm thinking since I let the wires touch they're shorted and now idk what the heck to do

whenever working with wiring, disconnect the battery. Not worth toasting electronics to save 1 minute's time
