LED install gone bad? i either screwed up bad or just have really bad luck or both...
Okay this is a doozy guys so bear with me...
Earlier i was as trying to install some LED strips into the footwells of the driver and passenger side. First I wired them to the 12v outlet in the center console with a switch on them so i could turn them on and off when needed and worked perfectly and they lit up great and just as i was finishing up something happened and they wouldn't work anymore... and neither would either of the 12v outlets when i plugged my charger into them.. so i was already in the center console area and i figured what the hell ill try it on the little convenience light thats in there that only turns on when the drls or lights are on.. and again this worked perfectly until i was wrapping everything up and all the sudden they were out and so was the convenience light and so was my drls and side markers and taillights... when the lights are turned to the on position the only lights that are on are the headlights...
I think i shorted something out but i dont know what and i dont know how to fix it.. Any and all advice would be appreciated...
Ive done these LED installs on numerous different cars but never my own and the first time i try with mine it gets effed up isnt that some shit?

perhaps you skipped the first step of this mod where you disconnect the battery before proceeding with wiring changes
