    HELP!! electrical problems after dash install

    i swapped out a new dash and now,

    -my fuel pump is noisy(hi pitched whine) when engine is on? or is it suppose to sound like that
    -one of my fog light doesn't work.
    -radio doesnt work
    -trunk light doesnt work

    what could be the problem?

    I heard a weird noise when i unscrewed the Motronic control unit. could it have messed up?


    everything else works. the engine starts no problem

    I did a test drive after swapping everything and

    -check engine light came on
    -left and right green double arrows at the bottom turned on (maybe wrong bulb placement?)
    -I felt a slight power surge/deceleration for about 1 second,

    and now the tachometer stopped working(was working when i drove around then stopped), help
