Weird NavTraffic issue (GEX-P10XMT) on my D3

I have my Avic D3 hooped up in this order via IP BUS:

 

D3----------CD-BTB200---------------GEX-P10XMT--------SIR-PNR2

 

Everything works great, I have all my XM & Sirius channels, and the Bluetooth works great.

 

The NavTraffic does not seem to work, which is frustrating.

 

When I go to the Info/traffic menu everything is greyed out except for the four boxes on the right.

 

One of the boxes not greyed out is XM Status which, when I click it, it says that there is no XM connected, which I find odd because I recieve XM just fine.

 

Anyone wanna take a shot at this?

 

Thanks!

1. Do you have your parking brake on? Or your deck bypassed?

2. Did you connect the data cable from the XM to the deck?

3. If yes to those, I would first try refreshing the signal while your car is sitting out in the open. I think you can still do it at xmradio.com/refresh.

4. If that doesn't work, try calling XM and making sure that your traffic service is actually activated. For some reason the music and traffic don't always get turned on together

I was looking at the wrong schematic on the install guide and omitted said cable.

 

All is good now.
