Default Electrical problem after replacing heater core

First of all thanks to whomever it go's to for letting me be a part of this board.Anyway.....I installed a heater core and evap on a friends 2000 Durango 5.9 4wd and now i have no power at all to the cluster except for a red security light when i turn the key.Steering wheel controls arent working but the horn does.The radio does not work but the clock on it does.The door chimes work.I checked both the grounds that the lower dash mounts and pivots on.I checked 2 small grounds on the lower left under the kick panel and 1 on the right and they are all good.I really cant thinik of anything else it might be and now im stressing it because im kinda stuck sadly.Any suggestions would be much appreciated and thanks very much.

You pulled the entire dash out to get to the core, so obviously something didn't get reattached correctly.

Look for the big grounds you disconnected and check there first. Work from the pass side first.

Thanks for the reply.I knew it had to be a ground or power issue.The dash has been removed before and it also has a sound system in it.Some of the wires have been spliced and new grounds ran.I found the problem though,i left a plug unhooked sadly
