Alright, I'm very pissed right now..But think it could be a simple problem..my battery?..all the lights are low as ****, and like my brother when we where trying to do my head unit..he hit the wire against metal. We ran a seperate test wire to my battery to the back of the head unit because he said something and i believed him..now. like everythings all dead a few minutes after the wire hit the metal and sparked.

Whats going on?

I got a 91 240 if that matters. But i need someone to come help me out if there is a major problem and its not the battery..

check all your fuses under the hood. not sure if that could be it, but its a good idea, i had a similar incident last week when i installed my gauge cluster..

I now know what those wires are for any why I couldn't pick your speakers up with my meter. Your rear speakers use an OEM amplifier. That also explains the other 12V circuits. Now the illumination and chime issue I think you may have cut another connector. Do you know how many were cut originally? I printed the schematics and we should be good. Just gotta replace the blown fuse, disconnect the rear amps, and isolate the +12s that are not needed.
