'97 Jimmy 4x4 problem

I installed a set of running lights I got for Christmas this year with my brothers help. while I was mounting the lights he was running wires only he had to puch a hole through the firewall in doing so he mangeled a few wires that shorted out my 4x4 now only when the truck is in nuetral when I press the button do the lights on the control panel come on but nothing happens. I have repaired the wires. any Ideas?
