Power Locks and Horn

I recently installed a rearview camera in my 2003 F350 6.0 Diesel. After I installed it the horn and power locks do not work. I cannot for the life of me find where these two things may be connected. I uninstalled the rearview camera and the problem persisted. I get a clicking noise with the horn when I press it. Is there a relay I am missing that could have been fried? Any help would be great. Nothing else seems to be affected.

The batteries have both been replaced about a month ago, but there was no problem with the locks or horn after this happened.

Both circuits share the same connector going into the fuse box and they are both tied to the remote keyless entry system. Other than that there is no common connection between the two systems.

Any chance you blew more than one fuse while probing around?
Where did you tie in the power for the rear camera?
Did you try disconnecting the camera to see if everything started working again?

Remote Entry

I don't think so, the horn fuse is not blown. I searched through every fuse I could pull and did not see any one blown

Where did you tie in the power for the rear camera?
The Camera is powered via the reverse light. The LCD is powered through Fuse 35 (instrument cluster) fuse through an add a circuit.

Did you try disconnecting the camera to see if everything started working again?
Not the camera in the rear, only the LCD screen. Figured this was not connected to the issues because it only taps into the hot and neutral for the tail light for reverse. The power door locks work through the keyless entry. Just not at the door. Also the horn does not beep when locking the doors through the remote.
