Default Dash Light Issues

Well, one day when I was installing my new radio I suppose something got messed up one way or another. Next thing I know my interior lights didn't turn on when my doors opened, but eventually they got back to normal. My cargo button on he other hand didn't. When I push it not only do the interior lights come on, but on the dash the signal for a/my "trunk" is lit when the cargo light is pushed. So. That Is my issue. Other than that the car runs fine and the dash is correct and such.

Try disconnecting your battery (negative side) for a while, this clears all sorts of electrical issues.

I've tried that. Up to an hour. Should I try over night?
