Default C6 Radio Problems

I have a C6 and the car was sitting without my battery tender for two weeks. Of course the battery went dead. I jumped the car and when I got in the car, the radio was not working. I hit the on button and the clock came on (with the correct time), but no radio and then the whole thing turned off after about 5-10 seconds. Any ideas on what could be the problem

No clue, but this is a TTT for you anyway. Will take a wild guess that a fuse has let go.

I do not think it is a fuse because when I hit the button again, the clock comes back on for another 5-10 seconds and then goes back off again with no radio coming on. Do you know if they are on a separate circuit with two different fuses?

Try disconnecting the battery for 10 min - might reset things.
