So I've done many after market radio installs, except this time I may have made a mistake I was unable to get it to turn on lastnight so I put it aside for the morning. I originally was using the ignition cable and ground wire from the cigarette lighter I then switched the ignition cable from the radio to the 12V Battery Switched cable and it turned on after putting my battery in but upon starting the vehicle the dash began to flick rapidly and now the car wont start and the electric key wont lock the doors, side note my dash still shows my total miles and trip meter

I drive an 05 9-3 aero. It starts doing wonky shit when the battery is at low capacity like dash lights staying on all night, locks not working in unison. Take your car to a pets store and get the battery tested. If it's low on CCA replace your battery and it may solve your problem. If car won't start take out battery and walk ur ass to the store to have it tested :)

In my case the dials on my dash "kms and gas meter" jiggle and make clicking noises

Yeah if your battery is low on power that can happen. Do you live in the states? Do you have access to an auto parts store or shop that can test your battery?

I recently took my car to a store to get an aftermarket radio installed.
Now the battery slowly loses charge if the car isn't on. I hope they didn't fuck up their only job.

Nah dude, no way any electronics are fried. I also drive an Audi s6 and when the battery was close to dead and I jump started it a few times all the fish lights and radio and shot were flickering like crazy. Installed a new battery (and did multiple relearns for window controls etc., etc.) and everything was back to normal. When's the last time you replaced your battery? It could have been close to dead and then you fully discharged it fucking around with your radio

What kind of store is that? I googled it and it kinda seems like a outdoors and home goods kind of store. But also had auto parts and (maybe) an auto shop? I've never seen something like that
