Default uh oh

Ok, so I'm outside working on the interior of my neon and all of a sudden the radio shuts off. I thought this was kinda weird so I tried to start it up and it wont start (you hear the starter kick in but it doesn't turn over) and the gages go all funky on me and then it says "fuse" in the od display did I blow a fuse or did my batt go dead on me?

The sunroof wont work for me, the radio doesnt work. but the AUX cig lighter works and all my lamps and my power windows

What fuse did I blow or is my batt just dead?

Never mind guys!! it was just the Batt. I drained it and the time i was on here it was resting, i just tried it again it struggled but it came on, I let it run for 5 mins keeping the RPMs at 1500.I hope she wont be dead in the morning

I installed a set of driving lights by hella and wired it acording to the diagram now that it is all done i got super bright driving lights and a wonderful "ding...ding...ding" and I get fuse flash. checked all the fuses everything works even disconnected the lights and hooked the batt up but I still get the ding and flashing fuse light...I am so confused so "Uh Oh" on my part too!

My bet is the lights draw too much power from the batt and they're draining it too quick
