Guys need some help. None of the presets for my XM stations show any information. In other words, when you go to the preset option, all 6 are there but there is no station ID, artwork or anything. Therefore, I don't know what channel it is until I press it. My question is this. Are the presets supposed to show info? Also, I used the Terk tuner instead of Pioneers. Do you think that's the problem? I am also not able to get XM traffic updates either. I think both problems are related. Any help is appreciated.

suupossed to show some tye of info- station id, artist, song, pic or etc....

it does with the pionner xm module.

 

could be that both your problems are occurring bc of you terk tuner.

 

pretty sure that if you get a pioneer one all problems will be gone.

 

but thats jusy my opinion

Terk is shit. Get the Pioneer one, its made to work with that deck and will fix all your problems

I got the terk from Crutchfield for free, after rebate, and immediately returned it when I got it due to this issue. I got a refurb GEX-920XM on eBay with a 3-yr ext. warranty for $65. I get everything you're asking about on the screen. However, I do not believe this unit allows for more than 16 characters of title and artist info, and there is no scroll. Not sure if the Nav/XM tuner (910xmt) does, either, but hopefully someone will chime in for you.

Traffic one (GEXP10XMT) doesn't scroll either
