Yes, fis the wires with electrical tape.

Check your room fuse.

As razz said, fix the wires first (so you don't blow the fuse again), and check your fuse box. Basic knowledge of electrical systems tells you that fuses are used to stop stuff from frying when there is a short or power surge. Instead of the electronics getting fried, the fuse fry. $.20 fix versus a couple hundred or thousand(s) dollar fix.

If you don't have a volt meter you could try using your tongue too

Did you do this?

hayden123456789

Yea but that wont help you, its a cluster of wires, that makes absolutely no sense.

What you need to do is check the rest of the fuses in your car.

They are in the repair Manual.

But the issue is not going to be found in the wiring. You must have overlooked a fuse
