so i was trying to change one of the bulbs for the liscence plate light, when all of a sudden right as im installing the bulb it sparks and the other bulb wont turn on as well as the tail-lights. :ohno:
when i turn on the lights the hadlights work fine, but the liscence plate and tail-lights wont turn on.
the tail-lights only turn on if i brake....
any ideas on what happened?
much help would b greatly appreciated
thanks!! :wtf2:

I hope you had the negative terminal on the battery unplugged when you did that.

if your interior lights don't turn on either ( lights for buttons and radio controls) then you probably blew the taillight fuse.
