Overhead Wiring

I took down 3 LED overhead lights from my garage with a whole jumble of wires that to me seemed to only be connected to the switch and lights being removed. However, now that it is done, the overhead LED in the adjoining room (with a separate switch) has stopped working. Pictured is the source from the ceiling that all of the garage lights were running from. There is no indication that the other room is connected at all, but something has gone wrong. Is there a combination of wires in the picture that looks off (I was dumb enough to not take a pic before I pulled wires out)? There are brown and blue wires separately in the jumble from the removed lighting, does one of those need to be added back to the source? submitted by /u/RagnarsEagle [link] [comments]
