Radio and center panel -A/c Control

I have a 2005 RX8 and I have lost all power to readio and a/c control panel. The dash has all lights , windows work, seat warmer and cig lighter works. Just the radio and control panel for heat and a/c. You can turn on the blower for fan for a/c and it works just can not switch from a/c to heat, defrost, etc. We have checked all fuses and none are blown. Any suggestions on this issue??

Sounds like the big power connector on the back of the radio is loose....

How do you take radio out and would it be wise to check to see if connector is tight?

I have a 2005 mazda RX 8 and the radio and air conditioner stopped working in center compartment . The dash lights work power windows, cig lighter and heated seats just radio will not turn on and the blower blows air but can not change to air conditioner , heat, defrost etc. I have checked all fuses and tested but all are fine under hood and in car. Need suggestions. please
