Radio and interior lights shut off with headlights and brake lights are on

i just recently swapped in a new motor into my car and re-pinned my tbi harness to tpi. im having a problem with my radio and interior lights. when i have the radio on and try to turn the lights on the radio just turns off. when i have the radio on and press on the brakes it turns off also. it never did this before and i haven't touched no wiring under my dash. also no fuses are being blown so im lost. i really feel like its a ground issue though. should i add another ground strap? could i have a bad ground? or a short?
