Angry Changed Headlight Marker Bulb Now Wont Start

Hello I have a 2001 Silverado that had a burned out headlight marker bulb. Removed the bulb and noticed condensation inside the housing as well as some rust on the bulb harness. Cleaned it up the best I could and put the new bulb in. Now the truck wont start. I can hear the fuel pump turn on but it wont start. There is no clicking sound like the battery is dead. I have tried disconnecting the battery for thirty minutes, that didnt work. I have unplugged the bulb from the harness and tried starting it. That didnt work either. I have checked the fuses and there arent any that are blown. Not sure what to do next. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hey there, have you tried another battery? If that still doesn't work, inspect your fuses again closer. Burned bulb might shorted and causes open wiring or slightly blown fuse, use new ones if necessary.
