Default Infotainment system out after battery replacement

I had to replace the battery in my 2013 Mazda CX-5. After getting it back the infotainment system is dead as a doornail.

Problem 2: Nearly everytime after I exit the vehicle the driver's seat will fully recline all on its own.

Any ideas? TiA.

The only two problems I've ever had.

Check your fuses for the radio. One problem that often occurs in changing batteries is removing the positive cable first and/or putting the positive cable back on last. This can cause sparking or surging through the system which can blow fuses or, hopefully not, fry electronics.

+1 Most likely a blown fuse
