redolphn Posted June 6, 2006 Report Share Posted June 6, 2006 Hello, I got in my car this morning and tapped the "Sirius" source to turn on the satellite radio and it goes to the Sirius screen, but nothing works. Where it would normally display the song title, it just says "Sirius" and if I move the little joystick to the left or right, it makes the bing sound as if it is changing station, but nothing happens. I turned off the unit, plugged all cables from the Sirius receiver, plugged them back in and still nothing. Also, I made sure that the fuse for the sirius receiver is NOT blown. Any ideas? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
redolphn Posted June 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2006 So I got a different SIR-PNR1 tuner and I still have the same issue. The AVIC-D1 unit is recognizing that the tuner is connecting because it is available in the source menu, but where it should display the song title, it just scrolls the word "SIRIUS". I can't imagine that I've been the only one with this issue. I called Pioneer and they seem to think it is the Sirius tuner, but I have the same problem with two different tuners. Any ideas? I pressed the rest button on the AVIC-D1 unit, but that didn't help. Is there some kind of way to do a "hard reset"? Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
druth Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 I am having the same problem with my D3 and SIRPNR2. I have done all the same things you described and I have the same result. I checked my ground connections with a multimeter...it is sat. I had some symptoms that progressed to this. It started out with 'Acquiring Signal' for a while. I figured it might be due to the antenna being in the dash so I moved it to the roof and it worked well right after I put it all back together then it would only work sometimes. Now I have the same symptoms. The D3 recognizes the SIRPNR2 but it get nothing....it is stuck on Ch 184 and it wont display anything or play any audio. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cntrylvr79 Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 You guys have the ipbus cable plugged into the right port on the sirius tuners? It should be plugged into the black port of the tuner. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
druth Posted July 4, 2007 Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 I have checked that twice. Now for some reason today everything is working perfectly. Now if will stay that way....that is the question. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
official_style Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 im having the same problem with the pnr2 and the avic z1 any updates? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
druth Posted July 8, 2007 Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 I am having issues again. Sometimes it will start right up and then with in 1-2 mins it will cut out and go into 'Aquiring Signal' other times it will freeze and not let me change the channel at all. I really think it may be the antenna...I have no way of really checking it so I am going to have to just buy a new one and try it out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
official_style Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 i was having the not able to change the channel problem. went to best buy, bought a new tuner, works perfectly now. i bet your tuner is bad too. im going to warranty my bad one thru pioneer since its a refurb, and then ebay it up Quote Link to post Share on other sites
