Hi,

It is most likely that the illumination wire to the radio touched a piece of metal, shorting it out. When this happens, the illumination fuse will pop, cutting power to all of your dash lighting.

Fuse #7 (10A) in the under hood fuse box is for the dash lighting. Verify the 10A fuses in the under hood fuse box to see if any are blown. Odds are we will find #7 to be popped.

Let me know what you find and we will continue as necessary.
Thanks
