Shorted the shifter light
I was fixing the light in the gear shifter, the one that lights up the P, R, N, D indicators. But in all my stupidity I shorted the wires of the light. All the dashboard lights went off too. Checked the fuse box, but nothing seems toast. What did I break?

Check your taillights! I ended up with a DUI after wondering which fuse my dash light's were on. (I had blown the taillight fuse with a trailer the day before.)

My bad, I didn't check the fuses carefully enough. It turned out that the wire in the fuse was broken, not toast. So it was really hard to see.
Now all the interior lights are back up again
