My thought was to pull the fuse till you figure out the problem? Make sure battery has a full charge. When you go to start the vehicle, plug the fuse back in to use the component. I don't have your fuse lay-out. If that is a dedicated fuse, then I don't see a problem. If fuse controls different components as well as radio then you need to be sure what your disconnecting. You don't want any unexpected problems. Just my opinion.
