Radio Inoperative Problem

[Bullitt Boy]

My radio currently does not work, will not make any audio whether it's beeps from selecting menu items or from CDs, FM, AM, and bluetooth. This is quite a re-occurring problem, I have had it in the past and I took it into the dealer where they simply said the 30A amplifier fuse was blown and voila it came back to. Now the real problem here is it happens again and again every 6ish months and I wanted to see if any informed individuals out there knew what might be causing this problem so I can stop it at the source and not just keep fixing the side effect. I attached the passenger fuse box diagram to highlight the exact one that keeps "blowing". Another thing I am skeptical about is the fact that when I check the fuse when the problem happens, the fuse doesn't even look blown.

Looks can be deceiving, have you tested the fuse for continuity?
Is your system stock? Have you done any investigation yet?
Only knowing that a fuse blows it could be anything like chafed wiring, something getting wet, a bad component, etc, etc...

If touching the fuse causes a short - than as mentioned above you’ll have to back trace the wiring from the fuse panel and see what is causing the short.

I’m surprised the Dealership didn’t attempt that in diagnosis - more so if the fuse is popping or causing a short just by touch.
