short (?) in driver's side kick-panel boxes 200 1986

hello--
unfortunately, i'm not the best diy'er, but the more i read here, the more knowledgable i feel:) well, i was fiddling with the driver's side kick-panel on my 86 240, because some of the boxes (relays?) seem to fall out (ever since i got my new stereo installed). i pushed them back, fastened the cover tighter. since then, my stereo works independently of the car (i have to turn it on and off myself, the car doesn't turn it on or off), the front and rear wipers don't work, the horn doesn't work, nor do the headlights. the park lights work however. the fuses seem fine, i even switched #1 and #2 with known working ones, no help. i must have a short somewhere? there's so many wires under the kick-panel, all the connections look fine to what they're plugged into. any suggestions on a cheap fix? what the heck are all the boxes under there anyway? thanks in advance for any advice!
