I was screwing around with the wiring on my radio yesterday and heard a snap crackle pop. Now my radio and my wipers don't work. Not sure why. I didn't think they were hooked up on the same fuse. Besides that, I have checked all fuses and everything appears to be good. I checked the fuse panel, none are blown. I replaced one fuse on the stereo as is blew but the other one was fine.

Everything worked before I attempted to "clean up the wiring." Now the wipers and rado are MIA. Any suggestions? Below shows where I hooked the radio into the fuse panel. Any advice is appreciated!
