Help me troubleshoot PLEASE!

slynx · 05-17-2009, 12:36 AM

So today I thought it would be a good idea to fill the gap around my aftermarket headunit with el wire. Stupid as I am, I did not d/c the battery and during the wiring process, I must've shorted something or anything along those lines because now: My head unit doesnt work, anything powered by my ACC I doesnt work (believe acc i is what its called on the first turn of the key), my power locks don't work when a door is open or when the car is off, and anything that needs a constant 12v connection pretty much. I'm not sure how to go about this at all. I've checked the fuses for the radio and accessory and its still intact and I'm pretty much all out of ideas. I don't know where the constant 12v leads to from the head unit harness because thats the wire I was messing with. Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated guys thanks.
