Interior lights: in the dark!

As part of the big interior change over, I replaced the headlining on the TD estate today. The first surprise was all the mouse droppings that fell out, apparently my Scorpio has been home to a rodent family in the past!!! Fortunately they seemed to prefer chewing on the headlining backing rather than the wiring!
Once everything was refitted, I connected up the three interior light units but none of them are working now  The puddle lights, interior mirror and floor lights are also not working (everything was okay before) I've checked fuse no 24 (interior lights and audio system) and it seems fine. I run out of time so I'll work my way around the fuse box tomorrow and check all the fuses but is there anything else I should be looking at, relays, etc? I double checked all the connectors are on the light fittings and everything looks as it should. I see from the fuse box diagrams that fuses 16 & 17 cover 'Electronics' seems a bit vague, what electronics are these exactly?
Cheers Jim

Check fuse 36, power saver in the Auxillary fuse box, that went when I took out the roof light.
