is it just the stereo? I mean will the engine turn over and all? Check obvious, fuses etc, maybe hook a power wire from fuse panel to the radio and see if it will turn on.

sounds like your main ground could be coroded... i've had the same thing happen on GM cars when they sat for a while.
check the main ground, then pluck and reseat all the fuses.
There are sometimes also various random grounds throughtthe dash- check those as well. A small amount of oxidation will cause bad connections.

yeah its just the stereo, ill go through it tomorrow and check everything, might have killed a fuse in removing and reinstalling the batt once a month when i would start it up.
