Also did you test all your wires with a dmm before making connections?

My turn signals as well as my headlights work, its just the parking lights the cluster lights and the seats. I had a wiring diagram but some wires were  wrong so i used a test light for a few wires. Thanks for the replies by the way. I really want to finish this and not have to take it to a shop.

Make sure you didn't unplug anything during the install.....maybe when putting zip ties on the wires. Also make sure that no wires have been cut or broken in the ignition harness(besides your starter  kill) If everything looks good, i would agree with chadwa...theres gotta be a fuse blown somewhere. Did you check the fuse box under the hood? I know you said you already checked inside, but check every last one of them.

All fuses were fine, i have taken out a bolt that goes in the foot brake pedal close to the firewall, and as soon as i put it in the parking lights came on. i guess it had some ground wire hooked up to it, thats a first. So now im stuck with the remote start i will program it and let you know what it did.

ok i just reprogrammed the tach and i guess it has reset it, but it still does not even show signs of turning on. The remote justs says inhibit on it like before. FYI i have not installed a bypass yet, but i know that if i have the key in it it will crank or even without the key the lights would at least turn on it just would not start. My bypass its on its way but i want to have it ready just to install that bypass and not have to deal with this at that time so i appreciate your help really much. So hopefully you can guide me in the right direction.

look at the 2 pin connector (control switch). take the  BLACK/ white, that should be the NSS wire, connect that to ground and it should start.

Thanks to all that helped. I was reading some other threads in a different site and my mistake was in connecting the shutdown wire to the positive side of the brake switch and it went on the negative. Thanks for your help anways.
