1st of all you have to take off the unit and reword it all again, but 1st disconnect the negative battery terminal to avoid blown fuses. If the lights went off is because you blew the instrumental lights fuse. Go to this site choose your car and follow the wiring code for the stereo.

Something is wired wrong most probably. You have most likely blown a fuse. Which may or may not be related to the new stero. Find your fuse panel on your car and look for one that has the little wire in it melted and replace it. If it happens again, something is mixed up in the wiring.
