Likely a short from crappy installation.
PS. Just because a fuse looks good doesn't mean it is, you need to check voltage drop while loaded (passing current). For bonus points the lower the resistance the closer to the short to ground you are. Also all cigarette chargers aren't equal, some you have to fiddle with to get good connections, the fact the radio doesn't work is a big clue its not a simple 'wiggle the charger till it gets a good connection " scenario..
