I just replaced the factory radio with an aftermarket. Couldn't figure out the wires so I had to run my own. The needle on the speedometer does not move now and the miles on the trip and odometer do not turn. All the other guages are working properly and also the automatic locks that activate when travelling are not working either. I checked the fuses for warning lights and guages in the block under the driver's dash, but it's fine. Can anyone help?
