I was replacing a broken pop bumper socket in Taxi. It is fairly hard to reach & harder to see behind the pop bumper, so I did it by feel. The flat leads got crossed & shorted out the pop bumpers & lights. I fixed the flat leads, insulated the positive one & replaced the 2 1/2 amp fuse to the pop bumpers. They now work, but the lights do not. Any ideas? Thanks!

The pop bumper lights are part of the general illumination circuit (iirc). Are the fuses for the gi good? Are you missing other gi lighting?

I am missing some other gi lights on the same braided wire. All of the fuses tested ok, but when I pulled the GI fuse and test it out of the machine, it was broken. Thanks for walking me through it!
