Is there a reset button on it? Usually under the detachable face? You push it with a ballpoint tip or an unfurled paperclip.

Is there no fuse inline with the yellow constant power wire? Usually there is an inline fuse in addition to the one on that back of the radio.
Also I would check the fuse with a multimeter just to be sure the fuse is intact. A visual is sometimes misleading.
