Lights and accessories question

Cottontail

Three-De Off-Road
Location
Nashville, TN
I was cutting vent holes in my hood today, and removed the underhood light that never worked. I simply snipped the wires and cut it out.

Now, I notice, while the Jeep runs and the headlights work, the following do not:

Dome light
Radio (lights or music)
Climate control (lights or fan)

Could it be that I disrupted a circuit when I snipped those wires, or is there a bigger issue.
 
I removed my friend's underhood light after it decided to take a dive and half melt the wires and get caught underneath somewhere. No issues.
Have you checked fuses?
 
I suspect I did blow a fuse. Not sure which fuse it might be so I guess I have to just start pulling them to look.
 
Did you snip both wires simultaneously? Maybe it shorted when you snipped the wires causing a fuse to blow?


Winner, winner, chicken dinner! Blew fuse #16.
