dlsipe1 Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 I have read a few posts about this and have found that most talk about the power cord connection, but I have power to the xm unit. I hooked up to an AVIC d2 and am able to recieve the xm stations, but when I check out the hardware connections, it says 'not connected.' Also the navtraffic seems to be not working. A lot of you guys seem to know your stuff, any suggestions, or did I miss something? (wouldn't be the first time) PS I activated the service and included the navtraffic two days ago and followed the xm rep's directions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JasonH Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 Is the data cable connected? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
whtcrxghst Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 The highly skilled reps at XM often(very often) forget to actually do the traffic portion of the activation. Its a seperate process or something so they forget to do it. I would call and double check. You might also try refreshing the signal while you've got the radio on and receiving music. www.xmradio.com/refresh/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cntrylvr79 Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 And make sure the RED wire is NOT connected to anything. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dlsipe1 Posted February 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 thanks, guys! I'll check out your suggestions after work today. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
penguin31 Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 Please forgive the obvious question... Do you have the GEX-P10XMT or the GEX-P920XM connected to your AVIC? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dlsipe1 Posted February 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 It is the GEX-P10XMT. Sorry should have stated that originally. I'm going to check out all of your (much appreciated) suggestions this evening. This is my first attempt at installing anything more than a basic head unit. This site has been very helpful!

dlsipe1 Posted February 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 Twas the data cable. Must have come unhooked when I mounted the unit. Thanks! I appreciate all of your suggestions and assistance! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
