oops was created by msavitt

everything electrical on bike was working perfectly after a long day and a few beverages
then i decided to mess with horn
I left key on and think I may have shorted things
now turn signals are out and brake light sort of sadly blinks then goes dim
the fuse is okay
any ideas?

and i think after all of this the weak horn issue is the button
