Depending on your model and year, most GM's have 2(two) interior fuses. Check your manual. The second fuse might be located of your fuse panel, or if your on of the unlucky ones, look inder your hood for the fuse panel / block.
Hope this helps and good luck!

yeah, there is probably a second fuse. When you pushed your aftermarket in, you may have seperated a wire of two, causing you to blow fuses. A good idea may be to pull the stereo back out and redo it. Make sure you do, to trace all the connecting wires for any type of abrasions or burn marks.
Question? Did you attach the stereo with just electrical tape? If so, you may have seperated the orange (hot) wire, and grounded the @!#$, resulting in your blown fuse. LOL i have done this more times than i can count! Just an idea, when you put the stereo back in, connect it with crimps (butt plugs) this provides the best security when done right. ( harded to steal and harder for you to yank a wire when you shove or pull to hard)
Anyway, hope this helps!
Good Luck!
