did I blow a fuse?

I changed the center lights to the 9 led feston from superbrightlights.
today when hopped into the car the center console lights were dead.
I can't turn on the stereo or the air. the only buttons that respond on the whole center are the defrost buttons.
I can't control the sound systemfrom the buttons on the steering wheel either
help! the dealerships are closed today

Check specifically the 'small lights' fuse in the engine bay, reffer to the owners manaul for the fuse information and location.

Yup, my center console lights blew out one day randomly, I thought it was the pcb bord, but since my TSX is a 05 I new it wasn't likely, I checked the small lights fuse and what did you know it was blown.

Check fuses first, if the problem remains, contact local dealer.

edit:; i ran not a post online that said that all the lights in the car are wired to one fuze so if my dome lights are out and its the fuse that is causing the problem the rest of the lights should also be out. Is that true?
