No reverse lights or signals

Hey guys I tried finishing two projects today.. First one being a new hitch and wiring and the second a new stereo deck and reverse camera. I finished both then went to test everything. I found I had no reverse light on the side I tapped into for the camera (to turn it on when in reverse) and I then noticed I have no signals. I tried Unclipping the trailer wiring ( a plug and play one which connects to the wiring behind the two rear panels) and plugged them back to how they are from the factory.. No change. I tried switch the bulb on the reverse light and no luck only the right one works. I checked fuses and they all apprear fine. The signals don't even light up on the dash/cluster.. Any ideas?? Thanks!

I had something similar happen. I had the center dash apart and tried to drive away without the clock/hazard switch/climate controls hooked up. I had no blinkers, and the dash lights didn't blink or click when I tried to turn my signals on.

The problem might lie in whether or not your hazard switch is fully connected. Or possibly another part of the harness in the center of the dash. Just a suggestion. Good luck!
 
Nice so the signals were out because I didn't reconnect a harness when pulling the dash out :) however I still can't diagnose the no reverse lamp. I cut the red and blue wire which goes to the reverse bulb (there was that and a white and black wire which I assume is ground). Then I spliced into it twice to connect the head unit wire and the camera wire. I'll recheck fuses but if it were a fuse wouldn't the right reverse lamp be out as well?
 
okay i got everything sorted out (the reverse wire had come loose from the harness) however the camera worked flawlessly for 3 or 4 tries then it started blowing my dash fuse (i have no cluster/speedo/odo etc). Any idea? thanks
