yeah. a fuse under the dash will kill the whole unit. sometimes on the back of decks they have a fuse in the power wire to the unit, or on the back of the unit itself, but not likely...and ussually if they blow the unit is inop.

chances are you blew the unit up. if its under warranty you could take it back to where you bought it, and if not i would say you are screwed and will have to look at buying another head unit.

im sure there is a way to fix it, but, most pioneer decks arent worth the repair cost...price of imported goods is low, but labor is still high. maybe one of the forum gurus here can give you some advice, there may be a simple way to fix it...but if the unit is operating normally but without sound, sounds like you fried the internal amp or the circuitry going to it in some way.
