Default Dash lighting/interior lighting not working

My dash lights and my interior lights ( down by the shifters) are not lighting up. They lit up just before i pulled my radio. Is there a connection i screwed up... ?
I got my turn signal to work again.
but now when i turn my headlights on, the left turn signal light comes on. It doesnt flash it. it just shows the green arrow. What did i do ?!

you probably have a wire grounding out behind the radio. mine did that too and it was like one strand of wire from a cut wire touching behind it, because it wasnt taped up.

Im sorry i dont know what year your Jeep is since im on my phone, but i had a similar issue with my previous 99 xj. Check your fuses, then you can check for pinched wires, or a faulty headlight switch.
