Sounds like the wire you used for power was oon the circut for all those other things, or if you pulled the fuse box down to hook radio up through the fuse box, you may have grounded out some wires, or knocked them loose. Use a test light or voltmeter and make sure you have power at the fuse box for wiper,dashlight, trunk release, door lock fuses.
Try unhooking one of the battery cables and leave it off for at least 20
minutes. When you hook it back up the computers should re-boot. That
has solved problems for me with heater, interior lites, power windows,
AC, day time running lites, power mirrors, fast idle, rough or slow
shifting, CD player, and wipers on GM autos and S-10 PU and Dodge
trucks. None of the switches are connected to the device they control
anymore. The switch tells the computer to open the window and the
computer send a signal to the window motor. When the computer gets
confused strange things will happen or not happen. Of course you may
have to re-set your radio stations.
