1997 DX Sedan, no accessory power to radio harness.

My car recently got stolen (got it back), it seems that my stereo is no longer getting accessory mode power (I checked the wires, ground is good and constant 12v is good, but red switch 12v not working). Could this be related to the way the method they used to start the car to steal it?

My car is Honda Civic 1997 DX Sedan, no power locks/windows

Check fuses, one may have popped when they took the radio out

I checked all fuses that I could, the radio fuse (#28) seems to be getting power when on acc and on positions. What else could I check?

But is the power coming out the other side of the fuse?

How did you check that it was getting to the fuse?
Got a multimeter? Know how to do a continuity test?
