97 Dodge Intrepid, CD Player, no dash lights

My girlfriend has a 1997 Dodge Intrepid and she bought a cheap CD player to put in it and I put it in, well when I went to go get a wiring harness so I dont have to cut wires,  but I would have to order one though the manifacturer. So I decided to install it myself by cutting the wires and wiring everything up my self. Well everything works, except her dash does not light up. And I'm not sure what to do! can someone help me please?

Check your fuses first of all then come back if that doesnt work

fuses are fine, that wire needs to be hooked up to something but I'm not sure what

Well the stereo could possibly have an Dimmer wire, most likely orange that you might have hooked up to one of the wires in the harness I personally have never worked with any of the older chrysler stuff So i dont know what color wire that would be. But I would check there first? Anyone else feel free to chime in here

You mean to say wall mart, and all there stereo shops in your town didn't have a very common wire harness? Thats awkward.  Or did you go to the dealership where they don't carry that kinda thing?2003 Chevy Avalanche,Eclipse CD7000,Morel Elate 5,Adire Extremis,Alpine PDX-4.150, 15" TC-3000, 2 Alpine PDX-1.1000, 470Amp HO Alt.

I looked at a few audio shops around here, along with best buy and wal-mart and radio shack, they all said I had to order the harness from the manifacturer

Ya i dont know what you have available in your area but any best buy or circuit city should have had that harness.... Isnt normally a big deal, but from what it sounds like it could have been here.

Theres one wire that was not hooked up because there was no where to be hooked up, its not orange and I know its a negitive wire

well did you snip the whole harness off? or just the wires needed?

The whole harness
