Default no power to dash and engine wont crank

Hi all I am fairly new here, I just tried installing an aftermarket amp to my 2000 cadillac Deville. after disconnecting the battery and reconnecting the battery I have no power in my car and no dash. Puzzled by this I tried cranking my key and nothing. So I have no way to check for codes as I have no power to my dash, I do however have power to my door lights, but not the dome lights, I also bumped the horn and now it wont stomp blowing. I am very confused and am running out of ideas. Im pretty sure that the battery cables are tight and on correctly, anyone have any ideas?

Default no power to dash

There is a ground wire at the right front of the engine compartment that attaches to the body then to the engine block.
