Oh no, that's a drag.

Did you clip only one conductor at a time, and tape up the loose ends that were left?
If you clipped multiple wires at a time you likely have blown more than one fuse.
Get your multi-meter out and test all your fuses.

I clipped the wires but did tape them. Now where would I find the fuses? I haven’t seen a fuse box or anything. Would I just buy a regular multimeter?

There should be a chassis fuse box to the left of the steering column, maybe behind a cover. Look around overhead and to the left of the driver seat for a bus body fuse box. To get started, an inexpensive multi-meter is all you really need.
