"First Rule of XM-Club, Listen To Klaus!"


My TNR-Navigation & XM saga continues:


Purchased a used INR (non-touch screen) and brand new GM XM Radio Kit

“Professional” installer breaks the headliner trying to install the GM XM Radio antenna

INR installed

Can’t find a damn GM dealer that will program the INR to my VIN

Returned both INR and GM XM Radio and bought a brand new TNR (Klaus told me to get a new TNR from the beginning)

New headliner in

New TNR and aftermarket XM Radio installed

Extremely poor Navigation reception and XM Radio works but the artist, song and preset displays awry!

Took apart the dash myself and found GPS antenna connection bad, easy fix

Discovered that the VSS wire was never installed

This Friday I have an appointment to get the VSS installed and the XM “fixed.” They used a P.I.E. adapter (I know, Klaus warns against this).

Lesson? Should have listened to Klaus in the first place and bought a new TNR and stuck with the GM-XM Kit! Three months of pain!
