Default Newbie here, self inflicted electrical issue I think

Got my first bike, a 2000 F4. one of the front led turn signals were broken, so I figured Id install a pair of flush mounts. Installed the one on right side of bike, everything worked. When installing one on left side of bike, must have let the wires touch. Here's the fun part. Now gauge cluster is dead, no tail light, no blown fuses(4 in box next to battery, or 30 amp next to box). Even tried unhooking both new lights and just leaving the butt connectors on the wire ends(bike side). Everything still dead, I'm at a loss. Help......please and thank you

Hi , then if its not the 10a fuse on the Black/Brown wire, it looks like you might have blown a connection on the Green (earth) wire which connects all the things you said are not working, check that Green wire throughout, check out your Turn Signal Relay (Green Wire) and the relay is good, and Green wire connection at the Reg/Rec
