HELP PLZ! Urgent NO brake lights!!

Hey was trying to install my LED plate bulb I had the car on ACC with the accessory light on, ex: tail light front yellow. The plate light accidentally came into contact with a screw driver tip. I now have no brake lights, rear tail lights or interior dash lights at all!! HELP what did I do. Only my front headlights HID and fogs work along with reverse and turn signal in rear what do I do????

I think I blew a fuse, i checked the obvious but they all look fine HELP have to get home after work in dark!

Found that the "Small Lantern" 15amp fuse was burnt in the fuse box in the engine compartment.

fuses can never be visually confirmed- they will fool you
When touching a Hot wire to ground = blow a fuse to protect the system

surprised it started without using nuetral switch override
