Default replaced stereo now lights wont work

Hello all,
I just replace factory stereo in my 2000 accord. Now the license plate light, side marker lights, dashboard illumination lights wont work. I didnt use a wiring harness with my new stereo. the dimmer and illum wire from car have no place to terminate on new stereo. I think Ive checked all fuses labeled lights. Is there a hidden fuse. any help would be great. Thanks

found blown fuse, but dash illumination, heater/ac illumination lights and license plate lights still dont work. Its got to be something with illumi control (red) and illumi (blk/red) wire that originally went to factory stereo right?

I think, memory, it is something with the orange wire? Hope the multiplex is still ok?

Might try this in the audio/visual section. KHA might know this right off the top of his head.
