Default A little HELP

A friend and myself were removing some unneeded wiring from car (air bag module under console, stereo wires, all hvac wiring) and somewhere along the line after all said and done, the car runs funny (stays ideled up and the odometer does not read) THe odometer light is on but not the actual numbers. I know many die hard draggers have removed unnecesssary wiring and such, just hoping someone can help me out, send me in the right direction to getting everything back in order. The car is a 98 formula A4. It starts and runs but will not idle down after revving. I know the wiring on these cars is very particular,(blown the fuse to the guages and car would not fire at all) so any help would be appreciated.
