Lightbulb Electrical Help

After washing the Disco, I was checking the lights.

I noticed the passenger side rear light was out. I checked the bulbs they were fine. I check to see if it was getting voltage, and no.

Then...I checked the fuses, couldn't make heads or tails of which so I pulled out each one and put it back.

Now...rear passenger side light still does not work and the interior dash lights don't come on, however, the automatic tranny lights come on with the light switch not turned on and when I turn it on they go out and of course the dashboard lights do not come on no matter what.

What am I missing here, I went back and checked the fuses again and no luck.

Also of note, the glove box light is not getting any power either.

Going to add more for the troubleshooters

Rear brake lights in same housing work
Reverse lights in same housing work
No power to the rear driving lights

Cluster lights work on dashboard
Dash lights for driving at night do not come one
Automatic tranny lights come on with light switch off
Automatic tranny lights go off with light switch on
Glove box light is not getting power in any scenario

All fuses match the rating on the fuse box cover

UPDATE!!!

Ok, so the fuse that I took for the rear defogger somehow made the rear passenger side lamp work.

All electrical issues sorted out for now

Can you post which fuses you found to fix this? It'll help others who might have this same problem in the future.
Thanks!
