Did you rotate the plug into the connector?

IF you blow a Fuse all you need to do is rotate it and plug it back in.

Try that!

Plug and play or not, you should just be able to flip the led connector. Led tail lights are polarity sensitive, they can only go in one way otherwise you blow fuses. Check the connections again. You should have 3 connections that go into one harness, reverse, brake and blinker

That connection can only hook up one way. It's the other connection with the green wire and one has a stripe(if I recall, installed mine a year ago), match those up correctly and you should have no problem. Before connecting anything I checked how the wires were colored, haven't had any issue. May you get this figured soon.

As it says in the instructions, "make sure to match the ground to ground."
