ok so i installed a aftermarket radio and ran into a few probs. I hooked everything up and somehow blew fuses i replaced them all and now most of them work except the dash. and everytime i turn the headlights on the factory clock goes dead. some one please help thanks

 

Sounds like you have a short somewhere. I would go over the wiring you did for the radio with a fine toothed comb. HTH!!

 

ya i did this morning i ripped it all out and re did it all. i blew a few fuses in the process but all is well now

 

i have an old saved wiring diagram but before i post it i will say sounds like your dimmer wire aint hooked up right which should be dark blue if you hook up the orange/white (aftermarket) to the dimmer wire or negative illumination wire on the factory harness which is blue/white dimmer there will be bad things that occur shorts blowing fuses everytime the lights are pulled common gm radio confusion and if u hook up everything that is orange together bad mistake dont do that. The dimmer wire dont put out 12+ constant so most aftermarket radios use the illumination wire. they sell a harness for single din jeep for like 20 bucks u can just wire it up. Ok heres the wiring

i dont know if all the wires on mine are the same as yours but most were around this time

if your replacing the speakers 2 i would also point out in the back hatch there are 2 wires blue and black and they look like there disconnected donot connect these 2 ever u will short out your tail lights its the wires for a 3rd brake light which was optional id tape em both up and maybe label with masking tape

 

yeah everything is hooked up right. now the antenna wont go up when the radio is on it worked right befor i took the wires apart
