    HELP! I think I blew a fuse

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So I went to SoWo's European Experience out in Savannah, GA this past weekend and picked up a couple of things from the vendors. Among those were led interior lights from USP Motorsports.

    Now here is where I need your help. I installed led interior lights from USP motorsports in my A4 and all except the glove box light worked and turned on properly after installion. I noticed the pack I purchased had 2 spares and I tried to remove the glove box light which wasn't working to replace with one of the others and I think I may have shorted something out or blew a fuse when removing the non working led. I removed the led but now none of the interior lights turn on at all (dome, vanity, etc). I also changed the puddle lights to LEDs from halogen bulbs and they seem to still work fine. Radio turns on as well. However it feels like the power steering is out because I literally have to muscle the steering wheel to get it to turn and the horn doesn't work now.

    Does anyone know what may be the cause for this? And if so how can I fix it?

    Thanks in advance for any help and/or info you provide.

    -Jeff

    Pretty sure its fuse #7. Search around the LED thread and you'll find your answer.

    Ok found the fuse panel. Trying to get the pick plastic cover off of the red fuse box to get to the individual fuses. Seems kind of hard to do without breaking the damn thing

    Lol haha I was being delicate because Audi tabs love breaking. Ended up just said screw and pulled until it gave according to the manual it isn't necessary anyway. Fuse 7 from the top was the culprit as the other guys mentioned.

    Now that I already have the fuse panel off might as well install my p3 vidi boost gauge
