radio not working

my brother just bough his first LS1 and the radio doesnt work I looked at the monsoon amp and it has yellow greese all in the connector. Would that stop it from working? I looked at the wiring goin into the h/u to see if maybe some wires were spliced into but found nothing unusual. The radio turns on makes a pop sound to the speakers but have no sound. BTW everything is factory. Any ideas?

Check the RADIO ACCY fuse (don't just look at it - either test it or replace it) - it's the fuse that powers the Monsoon amp. The grease is dielectric and is there to keep out moisture. It won't cause a problem with the connection.
