     Is the wire for the floorboard light that you cut touching something and shorting out the others ?

I think I know what it is, but first check a few things. Get to the headlamp switch and disconnect it's connector. Test for power on the larger red wire and the orange wire. You should have power at all times on both.

Why did you cut the wires? Sounds like you blew a fusible link
