03 e320 4matic, battery died, now radio is dead, no power???

I have a 2003 E320 4MATIC. The battery died and I needed to replace it. When I was done I found the radio was dead. No power. No lights, nothing. Checked fuse in fuse area, nothing blown. If the radio takes a "security code" to activate it how do I punch in the numbers if the radio has no power? Does the radio have a fuse on the back of it? Any help would be great! Thanks

SDS check should give definitive answer – easiest diagnostic method at this point is to check fuses for all MOST-ring components.

Interior fuse panel - CD changer f26, radio f28
Rear SAM (located behind left trunk panel) - navigation processor f3, audio gateway f6
