Default NO lights....Need help fast!

I put a amp and sub in my car today and got everything running right finally. I was just out in garage looking at my car and noticed that tail lights didn't come on when I hit the unlock button on my keyless entry but the reverse lghts came on as usual. So I went and turned my lights on and the tailights, and turn signal lights will not come on but my HID's came on but will not go back down.

I think I've blew a fuse of some sort. Can somebody help me out. Thanks in advance!

Thanks,
Derek

We figured out that it was a pinched wire!! That happens sometimes when you excited and in a hurry to get that thumping stereo back in.
