Try pulling the radio and checking for power at the connector. If there's power, could be the radio has broke.

One more thing to check behind the radio would be if you do indeed have both Constand Pwr (Lt Green/Purple) and Acc power (Black/Pink) behind the radio would be, to check and make sure that the mute wire isn't shorting to ground somewhere. There is a wire back there that is a mute for your cell phone. When it sees ground it will override the stereo. I'm not sure of the color but go and buy an aftermarket deck harness and match the pin placement to find the mute (Brown) wire in the aftermarket harness and see if that is it.
