Need some assistance please

Ok, I was changing out my corner lamp bulb (the one next to the headlight). I had the switch turned on & I was just doing a routine inspection of the socket & I thought I seen something laying inside. So stupid me I grab my pick tool & reach into the socket to get it out & for some reason I had a brain fart & accidentally touch the two terminals at the same time with the tool.

To make a long story short I ended up shorting out the circuit & my running lights are now out / not working. I figured no big deal I'm positive I just blew the fuse. Well I open the fuse panel inside the car & there isn't a spot for "Running Lights" If one of you guy's can point me in the right direction where to locate the fuse for my running lights I would greatly appreciate it.

I felt like a big enough clown by sticking a stupid metal object into the socket & now it's even worse cause I can't locate the damn fuse???



PS, I have also checked the fuse boxes under the hood & no luck. Except for one relay on the passenger side of the car that was looking alittle suspicious???

OH! It should be a 7.5 fuse, I don't remember the name but I blew it out and replaced it. If it helps you should look at the name and find one that relates to when you turn your light stalk up one.
