A disconnected the battery to replace an engine cooling fan. when I got done my gauges didn't work, my headlights don't work, my dome light don't work, and if I pushed the lock button on my door all my gauges light up and all my fuel temperature in all that works.

Clearly that doesn't make much sense, so we need to check fuses because the only thing that really makes sense is some blown fuses. Not only does this issue not really make sense after just a battery disconnect but they also don't really relate to each other. So what makes the most sense is blown fuses.

I attached the fuse info, let's run through them and make sure none of them are blown.
