Electronics acting up in the GP

I recently installed an aftermarket clarion deck and I'm thinking I F-ed up my baby. When I'm driving around, all her gauges will drop with the exception of the speedometer. The traction control turns itself off, my low fuel light comes on(obviously because the gauge drops to empty haha).

Has anyone else had this problem?
I think I messed up one of my connections, but which wires could I cross doing the radio that would cause such a pain in my B@lls. Please help ASAP, I haven't got to enjoy the fact I have my deck back in yet... : (
And I want it fixed before I install my amp.
 


So I just went and checked the ground and it felt a little loose so I re did it and I'll keep you posted on whether that was it or not, I'll go for a scoot after work to test er out.
 


Looks like that's all it was. I just went for a boot on my lunch here at work, threw the car around a little bit to make sure the wires are flailing around causing the short still. Seems good. thanks for the help, I was at a loss here as I've never experienced this, thank god it was simple. haha

side note: What is all your takes on Heat Shrinking Tubes for wiring? They are my favourite to use, but I'm wondering if there are reasons I shouldn't.
