Default '89 B250, no tail light

Hey. So the other day I was replacing a bulb on my tail light, the left side, and I accidentally put + to - and shortcircuited it. I thought a fuse was blown so I took a look in the fuse box in the glove box, only to see that all the fuses were fine. So short, I have no tail light on the van. Indicators, brake lights and reverse lights are working as usual. The bulbs are whole. Might be worth adding that when I short circuited it I had to replace the right bulb too. Both are changed, but no tail light.

Anyone that might know what it is? I am 99% sure that a fuse is blown somewhere because the cables are fine. Is there fuses anywhere else other than in the glove box or what?! It drives me crazy!

Did you put in 2-element bulbs? They should have 2 pins. The rear lights do not work well unless they are attached to the van because the screw grounds them.
