Did they all cut out at once? Did you check both fuse boxes?

Yes, check both fuse boxes, under the dash an in the engine bay. Its probably in the engine bay. It will more than likely be a fuse you wouldn't think it would be.

It could be a grounding problem. I kept blowing fuses and bulbs when I found that one of my remote wires behind my cd player came loose. I also think it wasn't grounded right in the rear for my amp. Best thing to do is take out the sound system, check fuses and bulbs, and try everything out.

that was my first idea tried ir redid the wires too regrounded etc etc we did mange to rig it up though spliced into the wire on the left side and ran it to the one on the right and it works so that means the plug is fine and wireing harness is fine so its the wire from the front being messed up somewhere.and atleast my light lights free fix > what ever a electric specialist charges

There might be a wire pinched somewhere. Did you mess with any of the factory wiring when you put in your system?
