Well it would sound like you either cut the wrong wires of the wiring harness during the install or that something was grounded out during the install. That either blew some fuses that are now out and causing problem, or it's currently grounded out and some functions are entirely dead. Who did your stereo install?

Thanks for the help, its all fixed. it was just a fuse, however in order for the display to function properly you need to install a 68 ohm resistor between 2 wires that are in the leftover wire plug in the stock harness. simple as pie, once i found it. I did the complete install and it sounds great. im installing front speaks and tweets now to get rid of the stock junk. Dean
