You went to change out the stereo in your 2003 tacoma and somehow when messing with the dimmer wires on the stereo you have no dash lights and your tail lights fuses are blowing when theyre messed wit?

I'm not sure if this is the same but the ground wire going to the stereo is not really ground! Try running the hot wires for your new stereo right to the fuse box or straight to the bat and see if that cures it. I had a problem that was very similar but it wasn't a Tacoma.

Is it possible hook up an aftermarket stereo in a 1992 Eddie Bauer Explorer if the wires to the radio have been cut?

the answer is YES, use a test light to find the + and - wires (should be one ground wire and two hot wires [one hot all the time for your clock & one hot only when the key is on]) in order to find which speaker is which, use a 1.5 volt battery to make a popping sound in the speaker (won't hurt the speaker) and then the solid color wire will be your positive & the wire with the stripe will be your speaker ground.

You have two white wires and two black wires which one is the ground?

black wire is hot wire .And the white is the common or white is ground. Depends on what your talking about in an outlet or car battery. In a outlet the ground wire is green or bare copper. neutral is red and hot is black (I remember it by hot can kill you so black is death) if I am not mistaken. As for a car battery i think it's the opposite red is hot and black is neutral.
