if the radio won't turn of it will not be fuses as fuses cut the power those with little understanding of electrical systems always say check the fuses but that really only applies when something is getting no power. It could be the BEM as that controls the keyless play function but It is more likely to be a bad earth as it is impacting on multiple systems, when an earth becomes intermittent the other systems on the same earth can interact as the individual items try to find a decent earth connection to function
