Default 00 Dash wont light up after radio install

Installed my new radio yesterday & today when i woke up i saw that my cluster and most of my climate control lights wont light up.When I move the dimmer the lights that do light up start flashing,what could be the problem?
Thanks in advance

Check whether the connector at the rear of the dimmer is loose and whether the black ground wire may be damaged.

Did you get the dimmer wire mixed up with the other illuminate wire? I mixed them up before and it took out the dash lights until I switched them...
