    Sirus Trouble

    When I push the mode button or music button on steering wheel to change to Sirius radio, Sirius comes on for 1/2 second and then it switches over to FM.
    It will not stay on Sirius!
    Durning that 1/2 second the normal Sirus info comes up on the screen, I can see what station its on.
    Also I have a Sirus lifetime membership so its not a lapse of account.
    Has anyone had or seen this type of problem?



    My warranty still good, I so wonder if it needs to be replaced if I could pay the differance to upgrade to NAV system.
    What! Do NAV systems come with Sirius?

    Mine does the same thing from time to time. Turn your car key to Acc. and quickly change the mode to Sirius and it should work.


    Sometimes I have to try a couple times. Not sure what causes it.

    Now this morning its working.
    Thanks for the replays guys, now at lest I know its more a glitch than a breakdown and what to do when it comes back.

    I just had this problem and found I had a collapsed (bad) cell in my battery. After I replaced the battery the problem went away.

    Interesting about the battery. We had an issue today with our REC (non-mygig, 2005). "Mode" would bring up the screen but only highlight the folder for CD (no discs). It would NOT change to SAT.... Fiddled with it for a while, went in, voted, came back out, worked. <shrug> I know Sirius was working because I'd just moved my Wrangler with Stratus 5 dock-n-play receiver and it worked fine.

    Something a little different happens to mine on occasion. If I shut down the car while listening to Sirius, I'll start the car later and it will be on 106.7 FM. This happen to anybody else?
