Blower motor was not working so I grounded it and killed that and the radio. They are on different fuses in the fuse box in the car. Is there another spot I should check? Thank you for your help
OK, I would un-ground the motor and see if the radio works again. I wouldn't expect touching the blower to permanently "take out" another device. Since you've mentioned the fuses, you will have checked them. Could you be precise about the grounding - as I'd expect the blower to be connected to your chassis anyway I'm not too sure what you did that was different.
You'll probably find it's the same fuse which protects both things. Check in the fusebox which will probably be on one of the bulkhead panels under the bonnet (hood to you ;¬). If you're lucky, the lid of the fusebox will tell you which one does what. If not, look at each in turn until you find the blown one. A resistance meter would be useful here.

Could you give more detail? Have you "broken" something?
