radio short, troubleshoot

i have an 88 vert.

in the process of installing an aftermarket radio, my interior light cut out, security doesnt work, and clock resets when i shut the car off. also when i turn the lights on with the the key in it beeps, then when i turn on my interior light, no beeps. if i mess with the interior light the clock dims and resets again.

i checked all the fuses, and they are good. i reinstall the stock radio, it comes on but no sound out of the speakers. i am lost and need some help.

It sounds like something isn't grounded right and or there is some sort of memory wire that is not hooked up.
