stereo turnsoff when i turn on my lights

Re: stereo turnsoff when i turn on my lights
You've got the stereo ground connected to the brown wire instead of the black wire. That brown wire shows a ground with a multimeter, but gets +12 volts when you put your lights on.
Move your ground to the black wire, or run your own ground to a good spot on the firewall or kick panel area.
