So this morning I notice one of my dome lights isn't lighting up. I remove the plastic cover and the bulb is loose. It turns on if I move it around. so my smart ass decides to stick a screw driver in the socket to bend in the clips that hold the bulb. That worked, bulb doesn't move anymore but I blew the fuse. So i go to replace the fuse and there is no 7.5 spare in the compartment. So i grab the closest 7.5 fuse to test that the light work. They all work. So I put the 7.5 back where I got it from and closed the hood. I go to leave for work and nothing. There is this kindda loud buzzing sound when I attempt to start the truck. I even unplugged the battery for 30 seconds to see if that would do anything and nothing. I made sure all the fuses are where they should be and made sure they were all pushed in. So then I decide to check every fuse to see if any others are blown. While doing this, I drop that freakin little clip into the engine, gone.
How can I pull out fuses without damaging them without the clip?
Do you think that the dome light fuse can have ANYTHING to do with startign the truck? The manual says it doesn't. All I can think of to do is check every single fuse in the box to make sure they're okay.
Any other tips???
