2006 Acura TL climate control problems

im new to the acura world but i wanted to upgrade my hu so i could easily install speakers sub amp etc later on. so i bypassed the factory amp and ran new speaker wires to the speakers and i used a scorche wiring harness for the rest. the hu works perfect with my speakers and sub and amp but i installed everything and put everything back together and now my heated seats, shifter lights, and all my climate control (a/c defrost any fans are not working . so far ive checked the fuses on the drivers side and each one was good! the screen is still lit blue but when i press any buttons nothing happens. does anyone know what im missing? did i miss something? probably something stupid but im not even sure which fuse is for all these things. go easy on me guys!

You probably unplugged something or blew a fuse

Oh it's not just lights , sounds like you left something unplugged. Go back and check your work

If it's not a fuse, then you probably missed a harness that you unplugged.... Get a service manual or preferable the Electrical Troubleshooting Manual.

How would we know?


Like I said, take it all apart and retrace your steps to confirm everything was plugged in again

So it was the previous owner's fault? You didn't have climate control before you began the amp project?

I took it to an Acura dealer to diagnose the problem and that is what they told me. It doesn't make sense to me but it works now.
