    OK, I guess I did a dumb thing. I was changing out my interior bulb for LEDs in my 2016 CM and seem to have blown a fuse when taking out the LH overhead map light bulb. I had the plastic lens off and was pulling the bulb with a pair of needle-nose pliers when all the interior lights went out. I guess I touched the metal reflector plate with the metal pliers while pulling the bulb but can't see how that would have shorted to anything.
    Anyway, now I'm trying to hunt down which fuse controls those lights. Does anyone know which under-dash fuse is the right one?
    Oh, and isn't the interior fuse box convenient to access!?

    It's most likely the 7.5amp fuse under the hood.

    Yep, that's the one. Owner's manual was no help at all and I erroneously assumed interior light = interior fuse. Thanks - you da man! (and thanks for the pic - made it a no-brainer).
