Default Electrical problem
I bought a used 2004 Electral glide FLHT. Been riding if for just over a year. The problem i can not figure out is. I bought a new sterio system. It is a plug and play. After i hooked it up. I now have my front turn signals staying on and not blinking and bike wont even crank. What may be the problem?

A good place to start is with a Diagnostic Scan for ERRORS. Then go back over your electrical hookups.

Your bike should have front park lamps and T signals.
The rear does not have park lamps only T signals.

You mention won't even crank , Ck , charge and test battery would be first.
