Default dash warning light problem with new radio

2010 XLT I just installed a new pioneer DEH-X4800BT radio, removing the factory touch screen gps unit...now my e brake light is on with tire pressure and trac light and have no turn signal indicators...has anyone seen this problem or is it just my screw up somewhere?
Thanks

You should be able to use the $5 harness. Metra 70-5520. You will need to run a turn on wire to your fuse box.

There is something causing your canbus to turn those lights on.
Use the simple harness unless you have SYNC and want to retain it then you have the correct harness.

You said you had a factory touchscreen? In an XLT? It's not a Sony system is it? I wouldn't think so.

It was a Visteon system...I had mistakenly plugged one of the (loose) plugs into the sync plug and that was the problem, everythings fine now
