I was tapping into my gear indicator light today to get an illumination wire for my switch bank, and accidentally shorted the two wires while I had the lights on.

Everything else seems to be working fine, though I haven't driven at night yet. I was in a pinch for time and when I was looking at my fuse panel, I couldn't see any that were blown. I looked over my owners manual a couple of times and can't find any fuse that says anything about the gear shifter light, unless they abbreviate or use some fancy term that I didn't catch.

Before I get off work tonight and go out there again and have to start pulling fuses one by one, I was curious if anyone knew what fuse it might be? (I usually use my little LED flashlight to shine through the fuse but I just can't see some)
 






I just got home from work and spent about 10 minutes out there checking every single fuse, and can't find any that are blown. Now i'm stumped. What else could I check? Driving home, all my other lights seemed to work perfectly fine inside and out. No gear shifter light, or lights on in my switch panel.

Edit, I feel like a jackass! I have an LED as my shifter light, and somehow reinstalled it reverse of how it should be.

(In my defense, the wire did spark a tad and led me to believe a fuse popped!)
