Default drag bars electical problems please help

ok so i got all the parts to switch over from stock buck horns to drag bars, with new switch housing etc. well i tried that chrome braiding over lay on wires and cables. so i had to cut and splice the buttons to get the braiding over the harness. no problem i was very though sodering and shinkwrapping each wire before returning buttons in new housings. well got the whole thing together and no blinkers ,no horn, and no spark.,
what the f--k
ok took it all back apart to check for crossed wires but everything is matching up to stock.
hope that i didn't some how burn up ecm
any help would be great
thanks

Multimeter time. First make sure you have juice going to switches then check if juice is leaving switches. This way you eliminate each switch one by one. I had similiar problem found it was a bad micro switch.
But first battery cable? Check fuses
