PLEASE HELP! 89 SILVERADO WON'T START

Long story short a buddy of mine pulled out the factory stereo and installed a new aftermarket single din, used a metra wiring harness, and he hooked it all up, truck started fine before install, now it won't start at all, stereo won't even come on. Dash lights up, and when you turn the key instead of starting you get this rapid click click click sound, please help!

This is a forum for 1982-92 Camaro and firebirds.
Sounds like the doors were left open to long while installing radio, charge the battery.
