I blew something...

Alright, I was working on the car today, and I tried to take out the light from the door. Well stupid me, I touched the 2 things that hold the light into place with a screw driver. I knew I blew something right before I heard a snap sound. My dome like still works, but none of the courtesy door lights do. I realized that my key pad doesn't work either. How do I fix this!

Is it the Time Control Unit?

Check all your fuses. Could be the flux capacitor

first you need to check some fuses to see if one of those is out
second you need to stop making a new thread every 13 seconds

It monitors your level of blinker fluid.

Quite welcome, check the fuses like two people have mentioned so far and let us know if any of them are blown

Sorry, I've just never met anyone who has never seen Back to the Future. Also, when something electrical fails to work after you cross two wires, your first instinct should be to check for a blown fuse. It's the same whether you are in the house or in the car.

haha... I saw back to the future, I was just young when I did, and I have a minor ADD problem so I didn't pay much attention.

Yes, and thank you guys it was a blown fuse. I didn't know what "electron bat" meant in the kick panel so I didn't check.

The reason why I thought it was my TCU was because I made it possible to blow the TCU when I was doing some electronics...

Thanks for the replies and everything. I won't post as much anymore. heh. Thanks again for tolerating me.
