i must have shorted something out while swapping out the stereo head unit. now the gauge lights and stereo dont come on. also the tone the car makes when the lights are on and the van is off doesnt work. everything else in the vehicle works fine including the service engine, antilock brakes, and battery lights that come on and then turn off with the van is started. the radio fuse was blown and i replaced it but still no luck getting power back. all other fuses under the dash look good.
