Default Electrical problem on 93 2.3L

When i first got my car all the electrics where working. But know every since i put in the new battery things have been happening that I cant explain. My dash lights will NEVER turnoff and everytime i get ready to make a turn somehow the turn signal (both left and right) makes the engine SHUTOFF in the middle of the street. Has anybody had this problem n do u guys have neway to fix it?

Are you sure you got the right battery? also are you sure it's not wired backwords or has not been installed properly

I think it's more coincidence. Just installing a battery should not have created those symptoms. You didn't accidentally arc anything during the install did you?

Nope I installed it correctly. Could it be some wires touching in the steering column?

Any ground wires get lost and not put on. Only crazy idea I got.
