The radio screen is blank. I tried turning the car off and on and it'll no come on. What do you think is the problem? I hope its not electrical. Everything else looks to be working fine

Your car has many fuses that sends an electrical signal to your radio also as lights in your car. When an electrical impulse is sent through the fuse that's to strong for your radio to manage, the fuse blows to protect the impulse from reaching your radio and damaging the electronics. find the fuse box in your car holders manual and remove the blown fuse. Take this into a auto parts store and ask for a new one. It has a low substitute cost and is, easy to do yourself.

Have you replace the battery recently, because when you do you have to reenter a code into the radio for it to work again. This is done to prevent the radio from being stolen and used in another car.

The radio looks to not work. I could just take it to the dealer. Since your car is a 2007 you may want to still have the warranty.
