The Bose head has its own separate fuse on the rear of the unit........remove unit from dash to access this fuse. Never seen this failThere are other fuses which feed amplifiers and memory circuits.

Hi, Thankyou for your reply. You are very helpful. Let me explain what happened here. One evening in a parking garage, I had a dead battery from leaving my lights on. I called security and they came to give me a jump. I sat in car and the manager connected his battery cables backwards and told me to start. That blew out my alternator fuse block and my radio and power antenna and who knows what else. After changing the 120A fuse I got the car running. Now my radio does not work. It could be that the fuses associated with the radio, amps and antenna are also blown. Where can I find these fuses.Thankyou

tiedious, but you can just check every fuse in the block under the dash and under the hood. i too have never seen the fuse at the back of the unit blow. if thats the case look up under the search button to see how to remove the radio. good luck

Tech Note: A fuse that looks okay may still be bad. If something isn't working and the associated fuse looks fine, try replacing it anyway.

I went through this on my brother's G20 after he reversed the polarity during a jump start.

I agree... Fuses can still look good but be bad... Even the cheapest VOM or a test light will allow you to tell for sure!
