recently purchased a 97 Ford Explorer. After driving in the rain my windshield wipers and power windows stopped working along with the dome light? i took it to a mechanic and the wiring from the aftermarket system was exposed and bare...basically terrible. How much does this usually cost to get fixed?

None of which apart from maybe the dome light is relevant to the alarm. Wipers and windows shouldn't have been affected unless there was a window close module involved.

Amateurs assume, don't test and have problems; pros test first. I am not a free install service.
Read the installation manual, do a search here or online for your vehicle wiring before posting.

The answer to your last question for me would be about 2-4 hours at whatever the hourly rate.

I suspected a fuse for the wipers & windows (if not a breaker), but since only cost was involved...
