XL 500s lost battery power, signals, horn

Hi,
I purchased a new battery for 81 XL 500s and immediately had headlight and horn while bike not running. Left turn signal flashed, and right would go solid. (Any suggestions on this?)

But now, I have no power at all (same day). I am back to just headlight and break lights while running. Are there any other fuses other than at battery? Anything obvious I could have knocked loose while re-assembling? I had tank and seat off to tighten up valve cover.

Thanks,
Mark
