Hello I don't think the repair itself messed up anything. If your fuel gauge was working fine before you changed the cluster, then you have a defective cluster. If you had a problem with your fuel gauge before then you have a problem in your fuel tank. From an amateur mechanic.

I was recently installing a new radio in my car. Well, in my infinite stupidity I managed to get some wires crossed and now no power is getting to my radio or my dash lights. I have been unable to find the problem after checking the fuses. It is entirely possible I missed something, though. Note that the car doesn't ding when the door's open and the key is in the ignition, nor does it ding when the lights are left on (both things it does when working properly). The steering wheel also does not lock when the car is off (another thing it should do). The car itself is still running fine. The turn signals, heater, A/C, and status indicator lights all work properly. It's just the radio and the dash lights that are out. I'm thinking there might be a fuse I missed that could be the cause of this, but I'm not entirely sure, so I was hoping someone here could enlighten me on the matter. Any help would be appreciated.
