Default Gauge lights won't come on.

Hey everyone. I installed an aftermarket stereo today and now the lights for my gauges won't work. I've already replaced fuse #9 and #16 but that did not fix the problem. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Anthony

Why would you replace a fuse you didn't know was bad? perhaps looking at a wiring diagram would be a good idea.

A wiring diagram for what? The stereo harness or behind the gauges?

If you removed the trim piece around your radio I would check to make sure that the fog lamp light is connected again.
