A little while ago, on of my main headlights (passenger side) went out (mk6 gti xenon projectors). I ordered 2 new bulbs to replace both of them. It was a bit tight to change the passenger side but I was able to. As for the driver side, the bulb was physically was not not able to fit through the gap so I took off the fuse box cover. Once I removed the bulb, I set the wiring harness down and went to go get the new bulb. However, I was very dumb and didn't disconnect the battery and the wiring harness sparked with the fuse box. I immediately pulled it away and disconnected the negative terminal. However, even though I replaced the bulb and secured the harness, the headlight does not work. I get a message inside saying check front left low beam and AFS failure. I tried checking the fuses and they all seemed good but it's possible I missed one. Could the wiring possibly have been burnt and I need to replace it now?

Did you use the standard bulbs or LED?

You need to find this current draw in which circuit by removing the fuses then reconnect the battery cable.
