Default Power Issues

Hey guys I just replaced my ignition switch in my 95 Cherokee sport and now my turn signals, windshield wipers, heater controls and radio doesn't work. I checked the fuses and I also looked for any loose wires.

Any suggestions would be helpful and appreciated
thanks Keith

Yes it is a brand new ignition switch and I thought it might be bad last night, so I have ordered another new one and hopefully that will cure my issues

The wipers and the turn signals could be because the relay at the bottom of your steering column shorted.. that happened to me a few months ago.. its a black rectangle box that has 2 connectors on it.. one black and one white
