Hi and welcome on this forum.
I can't see the direct relation between your present problem and the short in the light. I understand left as the driver side...right? The other side would have put you closer to relays and fuel pump fuse...anyway
I suggest you make some tests : basically, you need spark and fuel.
1- DO you hear the fuel pump at KEY ON? It should buzz for one or two seconds .
2- Can you unplug a spark plug wire and check for spark?
I understant the engine cranks OK on the starter. COme back with these results and we will discuss the following steps. IN the mean time, you can look at all diagrams and other help files available in my signature.
