97 Pontiac Firebird. Digital lights out on radio and odometer.Turn Signals don't work. All other lights work. Help

Radio lights work but the digital readout does not. Dash lights work but digital odometer light does not. Turn signals do not work. Lights work but not turn signal. Car does have a security system and it appears someone wired something wrong. Checked all fuses and they are fine but cannot find a wire and trying to find the tie in to all those issues.

Given that the wiring system has been messed with, I think your only option here is to get ahold of a factory wiring diagram and see if you can trace all these various and unrelated systems to one junction point, or a place where cross-wiring could have occurred. Maybe the dealer, or a good car audio shop can provide the diagram. I doubt Chilton's or Haynes would have a very good diagram, but the GM factory workshop manual might. Also try eBay, but be wary of CD manuals, which are often not very good.
