Gauge lights not working.

Ok so today I installed my system with no problems.....
I go out to eat with my girlfriend for my bday and somehow forget to turn my lights off. Battery dies....got the car jumped. Things are back to normal...but now that night my parkinglights, the top and bottom set both dont turn on with the headlights and none of my gauge lights turn on. I have no idea why....but when i use my remote to unlock and lock they all blink just fine. Anyone have any idea what could be wrong? Its a pain in the ass driving at night trying to guess how fast your driving.

Thanks

Do you rememeber which fuse it was? And if i replace is it the fuse just going to blow again or do i need to mess with the deck. And what exactly do you mean by grounding out?
