I know that on my 2002 Export CRD Sport if the radio loses power then you have to type in a 4 digit number to get it to work again! My radio code is 2134 which is in the owner's manual!

Key fob is a bit more difficult...have you tried your spare key fob?

Try disconnecting the battery overnight, it may just need a reset.
Also are you sure you have checked all the fuses? There are several that are related to the BCM in the dash fuses box, I like to use a multi meter to check them, it's not always easy to see a blown one.
