Default Wierd Car Deck Problem

Ok so my deck finda flew out a lil bit but not all the way out of the socket because I ripped my car down the street. So I went to fix it back in the spot and after i shoved it back in I turned on my car and now the deck isnt working...I even took out the deck to see if it was wired properly and everything is fine and even re-wired to be safe. And I also noticed that my cigarette lighter isnt working either and its plugged in properly because I took out that whole bottom console that has the change pan connected to it and check and everything seemed ok. Any ideas guys?

It's a fuse.

Yeah when it came loose the wires must have shorted out and blown a fuse. Since the lighter doesn't work either it should be the fuse under the dash. There is also a fuse in the box under the hood labeled "BACK UP" which supplies power to the radio.

Many aftermarket decks will also completely shut down if they detect a short in any of the speaker wires.
