Default 6th gen accord radio nightmare.

Alright so here is the deal, i've installed many of headunits and systems and so my friend purchased an alpine cva-1004 for his 2002 accord along with an ai net chnager and ps2. I put the radio in and initially it worked so cool, was worried bout the illumination, so i double check it and it is wired fine but illumination doesn't work so i call my cousin and he says alpines don't have it, kinda weird but whatever. So i put the radio back in and now his turn signals and tail lights don't work. I checked all fuses and nothing is blown. Could I have shorted something or blown a relay? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Yes radio was installed with a harness. Initially the radio was installed 2 days ago, worked fine, then it was taken out to add a ps2 and changer as well as find a way to fab up a trim ring. After all this, when the headunit was put back in the car, all hell broke loose.

hmmmmm, well, could have blown fuses, but not relays, never seen that happen, and you NEVER EVER EVER EVER hook up illumination, there's no need to, even if both harnesses have the stupid orange wire, don't hook it up
