how far did you take it apart? Sounds like one of your grounds isn't grounding.

this may sound out like an out there response. But Yea when my brother put a new headunit in he had to get a box to go in his dash for the RDS radio stuff. Well when he redid to the dvd indash he took that out and none of the gauges moved and all his things were lit up too. Could he just need to get the box or if its in there check the plugs and all on it.
