Soprano Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 After over a year of working perfectly, I am having an issue where the Sirius and BT are grayed out when in park. As soon as I shift out of park, they start to work. When I park the car, the system shuts off (only if using Sirius, if I am using iPod, that will continue to work). I checked all of the wiring, and did a system reset and it still does this. Can anyone help or have any idea of what could be causing this problem? AVIC-D3, CD-BTB100, SIR-PNR2, iPod cable, and PAC SWI-PS Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HiFiSi Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 So does it disable it when you put the car in park (like with an automatic transmission) or when you engage the parking brake? the topic and title say two different things. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Soprano Posted June 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 I'm sorry, when its put in park (not the actual parking brake). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JLeach12 Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 my only guess is when you put your car into park its pinching the p-bus or power for your peripherals. if you located or the nstaller located the wiring or modules down that way sometimes the wires can get pinched if routed/mounted in a bad location. the ipod and swc run off separate plugs on back of radio the btb100 and sirius work off the same p-bus connection. i'd start there. what kind of car?

HiFiSi Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 ^ yeah... I'd say that whatever is moving when putting the shifter to park is interfering with the cable(s) or pinching a wire somewhere. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Soprano Posted June 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 The car is a Lincoln Aviator. I do have those 2 modules in front of the shifter, but I didn't see where the wires would be in the way. I will have to pull them to check it out. Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
