Default Problems with ip dimmer 99 camaro

Ok so yesterday I was hooking up my fog lights which had never been hooked up since I got the car a few months ago. It's an amazing vehicle . Orange with black racing stripes with a ls6 engine. So it's slightly wired different than factory both the engine and transmission are from a corvette. Anyways I broke a bulb after I hooked up the fog lights and heard a small pop. Checked absolutely everything I can think of... all the fuses are fine except inside where the ip dimmer fuse goes I put in a new fuse but when I use the fuse checker it acts like it's not registering the new fuse so my fog lights are out after buying a new bulb for it and my dash lights are out as well any ideas what could be a solution to fix this or anyone can give me any suggestions?

Yeah checked all 3 . My dimmer fuse is good not blown and it's registering fuse now . I got that fixed by unhook battery and rehooking battery up. Now my dash lights not coming on still just checked all bulbs.. I'm torn at this point.i got a l.e.d. strip temporary in there to see mph but idk wat the problem is yet trying to avoid shops outrageous prices

get the ohm/volt meter out and start chasing the power to find where it stops. i would start at the headlight/dashlight switch. you can download a service/shop manual here https://www.mediafire.com/?40mfgeoe4ctti also shbox is good look here 4th Gen LT1 F-Body Tech Aids lots of good stuff, is geared toward 93-97 but alot of it applies to all 4th gens
