Default replaced fuse and car won't start

Hi,
My husband replaced several fuses while trying to find the one for the instrument panel light. He found the fuse that burned out and replaced it but now the car won't start. 2002 Acura TL. Is there reset that needs to be done?
Thanks

check to see if all the fuses that are needed in its place, are actually there.

you probably have a short somewhere which caused the fuse pop to begin with. there's a good chance the same fuse or another one has now popped, unfortunately it will continue to happen until you find the short.

Or he put one back in one of the unused accessory slots by accident.

Did the car start at all with the fuse blown, and what fuse was it?
