Replaced Radio but still doesn't work

[Richmc96]

My radio random got bars on the screen and the audio stopped working. I pressed screen off and it would never come back on. Every now and then it light up with the black screen for a second but nothing more than that and if I didn't drive the truck for a couple days the battery would die. I've check the hidden fuse and replaced the radio but it still will not work. The vehicle is a 2014 Tradesman regular cab with a 3.6. Has anyone seen this before?

Which radio is it? Can you post a picture?
