Dash not working

[LeAccord]

So today I went to put the clock bulb back in .. I didn't disconnect the battery, which was probably the stupid reason why my dash doesn't work anymore. When I put the bulb in, a small spark occurred then my whole dash went out.

Turned the car off then on but only the battery light and the ignition key light appeared. Rpm, speedo, fuel and temperature gauge don't move whatsoever when the car is on.

I disconnected the battery for a little bit in attempt to reset the ecu but the dash is still not working ..

Did I short circuit something or blow a fuse?

Again, I know, it most likely occurred because I didn't disconnect the battery beforehand..

There is a fuse on the driver side. I'll try to go and take a pic soon.

It is the 7.5A Back up Light Instrument Light fuse.. 3rd fuse on the right.

Thanks Jeff. I'll have a look and try to replace the fuse today. There should be spare 7.5A fuses somewhere nearby, correct?

the fuse box under the hood next to the battery.. pop that open and there are a few spare fuses in there.
