It varies from car to car. For example a 1998 Ford Crown Victoria will have it in a different location from a 1998 Chevrolet Impala, or even the same car of another year. So, we need to know the year, make, and model of the car. Also, if it is an add-on radio, the fuse may be an in-line fuse, that is, in a special holder made into a wire somewhere behind the radio itself. Additionally, there are usually 2 fuses to any radio. One provides radio power when you turn it on, and the other provides power all the time, even when the key is off, so the radio can retain information stored in it's memory such as radio station presets, clock, and even the last setting you had it on when you turned it off, like volume, and station it was set to. If the car has the original factory radio instaled, you should look into your owner's manual to see which fuses are listed for the radio. If you don't have your owner's manual, call the dealer. They can look it up for you.

Turn on the radio and start pulling fuses. When the radio stops working, that is the fuse. Try the cigarette lighter fuse first.
if the radio isn't working it is the blown fuse which controls it or pull out fuses one by one till the radio turns off. ive done it on my import car it hasn't dammaged it your call
there is a specific RADIO fuse to check, but also check the the BODY fuse for radio clock operation and dial light operation there is a RADIO fuse to test, but also check the BODY fuse. It controls the radio dial lamps, and clock operation.
