Stop pimping out your car, for starters. ;)
Sorry, someone had to say it. I know it's your car and your money and your right to do what you want. As to fixing the electrical problem, I have no idea. Best of luck on that; i'm sure it'll work out fine.

You must've blown a main fuse, because apparently you cut power to the ECU. The blinking DSC light indicates that you need to recalibrate the DSC. This involves turning the ignition on, turning the steering wheel all the way to the left, then all the way to the right, then back to center, and turning the ignition off again. At least, I think that's the correct sequence - it's described in both the owners' manual and the quick start guide that came with the car. A true case of RTFM.

i disconnected the battery and when i turned the car on, i got the dsc flashing. it turned off once the abs tested (i think). put it in reverse, then first, then shut off the car, then start it up again. that should fix the problem.

a lesson learned, some wisdom earned.
for future reference the tech-highlights CD gives a demonstration on how to reset most of the electronic systems, usually requiring set combinations of key turns in the ignition.

dude u crazy? o a stereo shop? they probably know less than we do, the car is so new.. they probably can't even get the wiring diagrams yet to install an alarm... how would they know about other fuses and stuff connected to the DSC??!
take it to mazda if posible , now THEY should know what to do..
