Default 2006 tC Radio not working

So I initially had a battery that needed to be replaced. I took it to the auto store and the guy there accidentally grabbed a reverse terminal battery which resulted in him crossing terminals when he changed it. My car wouldn't start at all after that due to a blown alternator fuse. I replaced that, but my stereo still isn't working. Everything else works fine but the stereo won't even turn on. I checked the fuses for the radio under the steering wheel and they look fine, does anyone know what could be the issue?

I think I have a radio diagram on PDF. Let me know if you'd like me to e-mail it to you.

Is it a stock radio, or something else. If it is something else, there is most likely an inline fuse tapped into the +12v battery wire going to the radio. These fuses are usually around 10 amps or less and can pop quite easily from something like that.

Check the rad no.1 fuse in the engine bay next to the battery. 20amp fuse.

Default radio dead

I have a similar problem. But I was switching amps and accidentally touched the remote wire from the amp to the power wire and my radio blew. I checked the fuse in the engine compartment that shows on the diagram in the owners manual and it is fine. It is a 20. Is there another one I need to find?
