There are two power sources for the radio circut. One is the battery power supply 12v (yellow) and one is the acc trigger (red) which is only powered when the key is on. Hence the are on two different fuse branches. The switched power (red) is under the radio fuse and the constant power (yellow) is fused under the radio backup under the hood. The backup fuse is still good so the cd player will just act like the car is off since there is no power to the red wire. most aftermarket cd players will blink the red security light and ejact a cd with the ignition off.
