Check all blade fuses under the dash. The interior light fuse also is part of the smartlock system. Could be your cause. :idea:

Did you just use an aerpro adaptor harness for the stereo? Or you did the cut and shut on the factory plug?

You've blown a fuse or many sort it sounds... Visual check wont confirm a blown fuse... Use a test light and with key on check power to both sides of all the fuses in the dash...

Cheers,
Tim
