Passenger side taillight assembly issue?

A brake light bulb went out and I bought the one according to my Manuel. When I tried installing it, I realized it didn’t have the correct base and wouldn’t fit. So, I looked on the internet and found what they say was an alternate bulb. When I plugged that into the socket, I heard a snap and the whole taillight assembly went dark. With the exception of the brake light, the rest of the bulbs still work as I tried them on the other side but nothing works on this side. Did I blow the whole assembly or something worse?
