radio only works when headlights are on Sign In

I have a 1999 hyundai elantra. I installed an aftermarket cd player and now my dash lights do not work and the interior light and cd player only work when the headlights are on. Please help

What wires did you tap into to do this? There are ways to power aftermarket items and fuse them at the fuse box. Sounds like you just tapped into whatever was there and now this??

I agree Tom.
Maybe the power source for the system and the system’s lighting got mixed?
The lighting system’s fuse could not handle the requirements of the running system and has blown the fuse?
