Hey, so I have had sat radio for several years. A couple weeks ago, it just stopped working between stops on a road trip. It was getting stuck on "Searching for signal" or something like that. The channel showed, but no sound. Occasionally, I would get a second or two of sound, but then nothing.

Two weeks later, my display now shows "No subscription" and please call 888... and no channels are displayed. No infomercial channel that usually plays if you don't have an active subscription. The FM radio works, as does CD and bluetooth through the Bovee.

I spent quite awhile on the phone with SiriusXM as they went thru the troubleshooting script, to no avail.

I bought, and replaced, the satellite radio module with one I bought off eBay, as others said this fixed their issues. I called XM and changed the radio ID. Didn't make any difference.

Any other ideas what I can easily check? I suppose the fuses, which I haven't checked, but the behavior has been weird for a blown fuse. Which do I check? I believe it is 64-68 or something like that?

Any easy way to check the connection to the antenna?

Any other thoughts on troubleshooting?

Thanks for any input!
