I recently installed a new stereo in my s13 and things were going fine until today when I was moving around some wires behind it and all of a sudden it shut off and the clock and dome light don't work anymore. So I'm guessing I got a short so I went to check the audio fuse and it was blown, I replaced it but it still didn't work. The fuse didn't blow again but I tried more than one to make sure it wasn't the fuse. I checked the radio constant power wire but it doesn't measure any volts but yesterday it work perfectly fine. The switched power wire works, my dash lights and everything else is working. I tried searching but everybody else seemed to fix the problem by replacing the fuse or finding the short. I'm pretty sure I don't have a short anywhere because the fuse does not blow. Not sure what else to check, any help is appreciated.

check other fuses and wires form that...they sometimes melt in the sheathing...

The radio itself should have a fuse.
