Angry New to Blazers, and I already screwed up! Help, please!

So I'm new to the forum, and I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the right place. I looked around before I posted and didn't see anything on this subject, but if there is already could you please direct me to it? I recently bought a 96 Blazer 4dr. It came with an aftermarket stereo that I really didn't like so I figured I'd put the stock radio back in. Everything came out easy and went back in easier but now the 4wd buttons don't work, my dash gauges aren't reading anything and when my headlights are on while the truck is running the warning chime doesn't shut off. I said it before, and I'll say it again, please help!

Is your radio working? Samething happened to me, on my 2000 blazer, after I installed an aftermarket stereo , nothing on my instrument cluster worked, it turned out the stereo fuse was blown,

^^ Agreed, check your fuses, and then check the wiring. You might have pulled loose something or maybe forgot to ground something out.
