they are not connected, the heaters lighting will be powered by a small bulb behind them which will have blown, the radio problem sounds like a live feed problem, assuming you have tried every obvious way to actually turn it on!

In my gf's mk4 golf the illumination on the gamma radio is always on when the headlights are on regardless of whether the stereo is on or not. Conversely if the stereo is on without the headlights on the screen/buttons aren't illuminated.
I think that answers the question, whether the stereo actually works is a different matter, have you tried switching it on by pushing the volume control in???
