The radio may have an internal fuse that has blown. Your mechanic may be able to test that. Also, whenever a fuse is blown it is important to determine what caused that condition in the first place.

#3 of 4 e39 New battery dead radio by mlaspina

Replaced the battery in my 2002 525i and now the radio MID is completely dead. No code request - nothing displays. Checked the fuse on the radio and its ok. Any suggestions?

Your radio may have an anti-theft device that triggers when the radio (battery) is disconnected. If so, your dealer would be able to reset it.
