think i figured it out
I accidentally touched the 2 wires together on the 12v center console socket (another story) that I cut (orange and black). I guess the fuse that blew is on the same circuit as the A/C cause the A/C didn't work. I used the 20A fuse for the hazards for the fuse that blew thinking I wouldnt need hazards for a temporary trip to get some fuses. Well the hazard fuse must be on the same circuit as the brake lights because my brake lights didnt work and I got a check engine light for service traction control and active handling.
replaced the fuse disconnected battery, reconnected and the check engine light stayed off.

Sounds like the famous loose ground or Abs module rebuild

so far nothing yet, i hope it was related to the problem i had with taking out the hazard/stop light.
If thats all it was, I may test that theory and remove the fuse again, drive it around to see if I get a check engine light for that again

Something thats easy to check ...
If you've disconnected your battery recently make sure you have the pos. and neg. connections real tight. I was getting the Service Active Handling message on the D.I.C. from a loose ground connection at the battery. After tightening it up, it went away and hasn't come back.
