Check all of the fuses, not just the ones labelled for the radio. Ford doesn't do the greatest job of labelling all of the components that run off each fuse in the Owner's Guide.

he is right about that one...also dont forget there might be fuses under the hood also not just under the dash so make sure you look there too

Double check the ground at the battery. Sometimes it's loose to the point where the truck acc side doesn't have enough of a good ground to work but the cpu will.
