Interior lighting issues in F250.

Interior lighting issues in F250.
UPDATE: It was simply Fuse #4 in the interior Fusebox being burnt out, I had swore I checked that fuse, but today I solved the problem!
Hello everyone! I purchased an old 2011 F250 around a year ago, I have had almost no problems with it despite it's older age and high mileage, however I had very dark maplight bulbs, and I changed them, however now that I have changed them I am having issues with lighting: after the change, the map lights and rear domelight properly function when opening a door, or pressing the switch to turn them on, however, when I press the button to manually activate the light (EG pressing the left maplight) it doesn't activate, I know the lights work since they come on with the door open, but they do not work when I press the maplight buttons.
Similarly the rear 2 reading lights do not function at all, previously they worked very well.
My only theory is that when I was installing the new bulbs in the slots, I may have contacted 2 pieces of metal that should not have been, and burned out a fuse, but I have checked all my fuses and I haven't found any that are bad.
I have not seen anyone else with these problems, if anyone can help with it I would appreciate it very much!
