i had this happen to my 01Z while tuning it. I didnt need to change the fuse just unhook the battery for a few mins and hook it back up! Then hold the Power button down for few seconds on the radio

I am new to the Vettes and from what I understand the C5's are good cars but do have some issues, a lot of them related to wiring and faulty grounds.
The grounds are plugs that have multiple grounds plugged in them and they get dirty with corrosion.
There are some good posts and threads on the Corvette C5 forum that deal with this, also found some good tech at the Z06 forum as well. I am not sure if its kosher to give you the links just think that any good tech info is great to find and share!
