i have a 95 atx. i just recently installed 2 12 jbls and a 850 watt amp everything was working fine my rca wire was hanging down under my feet and i might have pulled it a lil bit. (i ran it under the trim by the door) and next thing i know the dash lights and my ashtray lights arent working. all the exterior lights and the interior lights besides them work including my radio my clock (although it gets dim with the headlights on) my rear defrosters work and everything else works that i am aware off. maybe i pulled a cable or something does anyone know if they are powered by the same cable?

after relooking my wiring it appears that my wiring harness has prongs inside that were bent and touching and the back of the radio was burning hot and now wont work it appears to be what caused the short my speakers sounded very distorted also. i pulled the radio and i am gonna replace it but does anyone know what i can replace to get my interior lights working properly again
