Default Radio Stopped working

After taking my car in to have the top replaced, my radio will not come on at all. There is a blinking red light off to the right. Any ideas on how to reset it? I have also looked in to seeing if it could be a fuse but there is no map showing which fuse is to what.
Thanks,

What model year?

Some model years, at least up to/including 2002 (my Boxster's model year) require a radio code be entered after the battery was disconnected.

If you have a Boxster that requires a radio code maybe the code is written into the owners manual?

Here's a link that provides instructions on how to obtain the info necessary to obtain the radio code:

http://www.radio-code.com/Porsche-Pa...ode_step_1.htm

Bear in mind that if you enter the code incorrectly you have to wait 30 minutes -- with the engine running -- before you can try again.

As for fuses, it doesn't read like a fuse problem but the fuse box lid should have a fuse chart stuck to the cover's inside surface.
