There are two fuses located just at the rear of the radio. One of them has either gone bad or maybe the connector came apart.

There is also a 3 Amp fuse in the main fuse panel labelled "Audio". The amplifier, behind the RH fairing, has a 7.5 Amp fuse on the back side as well.

You will find that the White/Yellow Power cable to the radio has a break in it close to the fuse hold and supressor.. Its very common.. It might not show up for a while but it will re-occur..
The other possibility which is just as common, is the ends of the fuse tarnish inside the fuse holders.. Clean them up and that will remove that problem.

Check out my mods in the link in my signature..
