Default 2005 LS430 - radio won't work

Hey guys,

Recently, I was heading out on a long trip, and of course, that is when my 2005 LS430 decided to have it's first problem. My entire NAV/AC/Stereo system went down. After disconnecting the battery, the computer reset and everything works - except the radio. The CD, etc. works but the AM/FM does not. I checked the fuse for the radio under the glove box and it looks fine. What am I missing? Suggestions?

There are at least 3 fuses that are related to the radio receiver as shown on the diagram below:
In the Passenger-side fuse box: "RADIO No.1" and "P-ACC"
In the Driver-side fuse box: "AM1"

Did this work for you? I have 06 LS430 no nav, no rear ac, and my radio will not turn on. CD will turn on and the CD changer will change discs, but volume stays at 0 when I touch the control ****. When I press am or fm radio buttons, nothing happens. I’ve tried pulling fuses in trunk and passenger footwell, and all are good.
