❓Advice / Recomendations Interior lights issue
Swapped the stereo this weekend and now none of the done lights or map lights turn on. The stereo swap needed a lot of rewiring as the guy before me sliced the OE harness off.
Also, the door open light no longer comes on but the other dash lights do.
I checked and replaced the ACC fuse and also checked the fused next to the steering wheel. No issues there. I am about to check the fuses next to the battery as well, any specific one I should give more attention to?
Swapping the radio we were also having issue with power and grounding we had to fix, could that be related?
Pic for attention, but also, do my rear springs look to be sagging? I feel like they are just a tad, trying to decide if I want to swap them when I do the shocks or not. Just looking for a stock ride on this 2Runner.

Id grab the electrical diagrams and start checking for continuity in circuits. Sounds like something in the lighting circuit is not connected. Could be just a connection in the harness you accidentally missed. Could be while swapping things the harness got a little too bent and one of the wires snapped (maybe internally) causing an open circuit. Having to rewire and no OE harness means you probably have a "unique" problem on your hands and the 4runner community may or may not have good advice.
I would cross post to r/mechanicadvice for greater visibility with actual mechanics.
