Default Shorted out Radio/interior lights/instrument cluster

Hello, I was replacing my interior led's when by accident the pos and Neg lines touched and there was a quick spark and the lights went out. I thought np I'll search for the fuse later so I went to drive it and I saw the gauges and radio stopped so when I got out I looked for the fuse and I saw the radio was number 17 so I checked it out and it was fine, I replaced it anyway but still nothing....? Any ideas ? Thanks, GREATLY appreciated!

Check the Ignition Off Draw (IOD) fuse in the PDC. Its location is marked on the inside of the PDC cover.
