About two weeks ago I came out to my '06 H2 and found it on an FM station. I called XM and they said the signal was getting to my radio and back. When I toggle through the FM and AM bands XM does not even show up. Anyone have an idea what to do? Thank you.

if you've got an ipod adapter it's the culprit. unplug and replug to reset.

No Ipod adaptor. Just plain old stock. Thanks for the idea.

The XM reciver is behind the glove box, disconnecting it and reconnecting it there may also solve your issue. Once in a blue moon I will have the same problem but I have an ipod adapter hooked up. Usually just shutting the truck off for a minute and restarting it solves the problem. Good Luck:beerchug:

I had the exact same problem (no XM one morning) and called the dealer. They said to disconnect the bettery for 2 minutes and then to reconnect it. Problem solved and it has never recurred!

Glad I saw this thread. Last week when I installed my warn winch, I had the battery disconnected.

I noticed later that I lost my XM. I hadn't had time to check it out but I was going to call XM tonight.

I'll try the disconnect thing tonight.

Nope, that didn't work. Perhaps the previous owner had it disconnected. I'll call XM and find out.

Just got off the phone with XM, the previous owner must have discontinued the acct so I just added it.

For any of you that have or haven't called XM lately, be prepared.... they're just like freakin' AOL... they try to SELL, SELL, SELL... OMG, the freakin' lady wouldn't take no for an answer.

Finally, I had to tell the bitch that the only fukkin' thing I wanted was to add a radio, no offers, no longer subscribtions, no free radios, no blah, blah, blah.... jeez oh man....
