Could have popped a fuse with a surge when you re-connected the cable. Has happened to me before.

Twice if you count my pos work vehicle...

@therick04pp Its just the radio feature that won't power on, I can still push the "Disp" button to "see/change" the clock setting. Would this still be considered a blown fuse from a surge?

Check all connectors and wiring? maybe something got pushed / pulled loose and isn't properly connected?

Not sure. After I posted I was trying to recall if the radio would indicate "Security" or something like it on the display. Do you see anything but the time? Might help to disconnect the batter for at least a couple of minutes and try again to see if you can essentially reboot the radio.

I agree. It sounds like the radio isn't getting a "radio on" signal. It's a pink wire your looking for, check that it's not damaged.

You mention this occurred while doing some re wiring. How do you have your lights hooked up? did you splice into any wires in the dash?

The theftlock would display a message if you some how managed to trigger it.

No splicing on the lights. Just did basic + - connectors to the posts, ground, relay, wires into the cab(switch) and wiring up to the 4 Hella's. I see no flashing red light, no "locked" code and just see the time when I push the "disp" button. Guess its gonna be a dealership day on Monday ;(
