XM Mode - PA15-AcuXL Issue

I've recently installed the PA15-AcuXL in my 2005 RL and everything has been functioning great. There were a couple instances where I had to unplug the iPod, plug it back in, in order for it to get recognized but was a very rare occurrence.

A couple of days ago, the iPod wasn't getting recognized so I decided to unplug it, plug it back in (trick that previously worked), however when I tried to switch my mode back to XM, nothing was happening.

The iPod is lit up, and its being charged, I just can't however switch into the "XM" mode no matter what I try (steering controls or xm button on the dash). In other words, the XM button is completely unresponsive, CD/FM both work just fine however.


Does anyone have any tips or suggestions?

Try unplugging the module from the XM receiver in the trunk and plugging it back in with the car turned off. Then turn car back on and retry.

Alas, the seldom used, voice commands may be the trick! I've used that when I couldn't access XM2 with the USA-SPEC module installed (I had the same inability with the dash and steering wheel).

I've tried this trick but to no avail. She repeates my XM selection after me, but nothing happens.


I'm hoping to get around to a restart this week and am really hoping that, that'll fix it.
