Electrical Problems Following Deck Install. Advice wanted!

[Keep]

Hello,

After recieving a new CD player for Xmas, I immidiately proceeded to install it in the Camry (1995) before we drove to the mountains for some snowboarding.

I was in a rush (got it done in 15 minutes) but unfortunately I cut the whole old hardwired bundle at once. This shorted the constant +12V BAT supply wire with chassis ground wire.

So I damaged that circuit which supplies constant power to the CD player. The dome light does not work, and the dash digital clock doesn't work as well. Furthermore, I'm getting a slight whine from behind the fuse panel.

I've checked every fuse in the fuse panel and I don't see any blown fuses. I ran a new fused line to the deck so now the CD player works wonders, but I've yet to dig into this new electrical fault.


Before I get my hands dirty, has anyone else made this careless mistake and had this problem happen? and care to shed some solution before I tear the whole interior apart?

I've definitely learned my lesson about rushing things, but now I'm focused on fixing this.

Check Dome and Cig/Radio fuses.

Did you check the mini fuses that are in housing that are by the battery and intake box? Theres a small 30A (green) there. It kind of sounds like a problem I had when I was messing with wiring.

Is there a reason you didn't buy an install harness?
