Message on a couple pads, but I've seen much worse. You should be able to finish this yourself with no problem.

Use a multimeter to check continuity between the three pins of each transistor. Make sure you didn't accidentally short two pins together with the excess solder.

Next, for each pad you soldered, follow the trace to the next pad. Check continuity to make sure the trace wasn't broken. If it's broken, solder a thin wire from pad to pad to fix it, then check for shorts again.

If you still have problems, narrow it down by checking the voltage at each wire in the harness. You might also check the ECU - the transistor that sends the signal to the FPC can blow if there's a short.
