It sounds like he could have blown a fuse with by not properly terminating your illumination wire. I'd say pull the radio, and check that the orange, and orange/white wires have the ends covered with a butt connector/crimp cap, or anything that can keep them from shorting to metal. The will rest at ground which is fine, but when you turn the lights on they put out 12v signal, so if they're touch metal that will blow a fuse for you dash lights.
