Default 1994 Mustang GT convertible Electrical issue

New to the site so I am sure I could find an answer if i looked hard enough, so bear with me for beeing a "newby"

I have a 1994 GT convertible and I took it to Autozone this morn. to get a battery replaced. The guy who replaced it pulled the wrong battery and to make a long story short hooked up the cables backwards........I was in a rush to get back to work and on the way back noticed my radio/clock/speedometer were not working.....hoping it is only a fuse (have not had time to check).any advice on what it could be and where I should start looking??

Thanks,

Bob

Hope none of the fusable links were killed, does everything (other than those you mentioned) work? I would go back and tell them they would be replacing anything and everything that was damaged due to their employee hooking the battery wrong. That can cause serious damage so have everything checked.

If it is running and driving then apparently it's not too bad!

Hope it didn't damage the electronics to the radio, that might've happened.
