Sounds like a mess! That's what you get for letting Mickey and Minnie install it for you. The turnsignal stays lit because one of the bulbs is burned out, and your stereo system is probably wired to your fuse box. You should never do that. Always run a seperate, fused line straight to the battery. It also sounds like you have some ground connections that need cleaning. You've got a busy weekend ahead of you!

Have fun!

Take care

Boy, Bowtie, it sounds like a Laurel and Hardy bit. Do you push the horn and the wipers come on?

What Chris said otherwise.
