Check all the fuses in the fuse box.
With the OEM radio, if you want to postpone diassembly the interior panels, the only think I can think of doing is to check the voltage across the terminals of the fuse box with a voltmeter. I have never tried to do this with a meter. We are talking about the fuses in the box that is to the front and left of the drivers left shin, right? That is a cramped place to work.

Don't listen to this guy. He doesn't know what he is talking about. If you have a sedan then you have to remove the panel under steering wheel where your vent is and left speaker would be. Once you get that out you can unscrew the next panel that goes around the steering wheel and on the center vent and over the cig lighter and ash tray. There is only two screws to this and you will have to gently pry to remove the center panel around the ac and cubby hole. After that you will see the screws to remove the black plastic piece that goes around your dash, which has a few screws that are under the dash that you can easily get to with a small philips stubby screw driver. After all that has been removed you can see the radio screws that hold the radio(4). You don't need to remove the steering wheel or get the keys that go to the after market radio. And you definitely don't have to mess with anything on the transmission side either.
