Default Electrical issue

Greetings all, I had a navigation system installed in my 2006 f150, months later I'm having this problem. Horn, remote, headlights, rear backup sensor all went out, and to top it off my rear passenger door speaker caught on fire, I heard crackling sound from speaker even though no radio was on. Please, can anyone assist me with this issue . Thanks

Do you think you have any place to start ?

Not doubting what you heard, but impossible for a speaker to catch fire as they have no voltage at them. Have you gone thru all fuses inside and outside?
