looking at that diagram it sounds like the one you have loose should go to the 4th from the right (next to the red and white)

should go to fuse 4th from the right then on the same side of the fuse the red/white wire is.... these two terminals are connected anyway.

I'm pressuming it's that pair of wires as they go to the ignition switch and light switch so would make sense no lights and can't crank.
