Electrical problem

I was adding wiring for a backup camera and LED screen. While I was working, I assume that I did something to cause my radio, dome lights, and power mirrors not to work. And all of the fuses are intact. I checked to see if I accidentally unplugged something under the dash, and I couldn't find anything, but I'm not really an expert. Any ideas?

You have standard or premium radio system? This is wiring for standard system. PDC is under hood left side wheel wheel and fuse block is left side dash open drivers door and on the side of dash is a cover pull cover and fuses are in there.

Thanks BigIron, I have checked all of the fuses, both under the hood and in the fuse panel. I have the sound system that has the tweeters mounted in the A pillars. Thank you also for the wiring diagram!

Did you check the IOD fuse it often gets missed. That's the one inside the cab with the yellow case over it.

Thanks Busboy! How do you remove the IOD fuse? I appear to have two of them, two yellow cases anyway

I figured how to get the cases off, and both fuses were good. Anybody have any other ideas?

Did you check the fuses with a multi-meter?

On the back of the interior fuse panel there are 9 connectors perhaps you knocked one off.

Hey guys, thank you so much for all of your suggestions! They have led me to the problem: #12 fuse is covered with a black cover. I never noticed it until Busboy suggested the IOD fuses covered with yellow. I don't know how many times I was in that fuse box this week looking for the problem! That's the great thing about this site, so many members are willing to help out! Thanks again!
