Sounds like an electrical issue, no way of knowing without getting it looked at.

Try looking at the wires for the light you replaced to see if anything looks pinched or the insulation is stripped somewhere and grounding itself to the body. Otherwise look for an electrical repair shop in the phone book and go from there. Normally the diagnostic is the most expensive part and the place I deal with only charges 25-100 to check it out and trace the wire down.

ignore mott power.

it's definitely a wiring issue like everyone said. but for future reference, when you replace a burnt out light bulb be sure to replace both sides...
