After about 3 months of having my aftermarket stereo work perfectly, i pulled it out again to better tie down the excess wiring. Once it was all back in place, the stereo was not receiving any power, the power locks and windows didnt work, the interior dome light wouldnt light up and the speedometer and odometer stopped working. I double checked to make sure all the wiring was intact and the same as before but nothing seems to work.

I checked and tested every fuse and the problems have not gone away. To make matters worse, while driving the windshield wipers stopped working along with the turn signals and high beams.
