Any reason to not just have both?

If you really want to turn off XM, you need to remove the harness from the XM unit in the trunk, its behind the trunk liner on the passenger side.

Why can't he just unplug the connector that goes into the stereo (or is Navi different)? If he's installing an adapter and doesn't have a Y cable he'll have to do that anyways. BTW, good luck with the Neo Prolink...is it the TEXT unit?

So does the TEXT functionality show text from your iPod? I couldn't get it working with my non-navi. Did you try just not using the Y-cable (or do you want to keep XM)?

there was a tsb on this.. you can bring ur car into the dealer and have your xm unit replaced.. me and reach have done it. =) your ipod will work fine.. the exact words from the tsb are like:

when using any ipod adapter.. and starting the car when it was left in ipod mode. xm will overplay.. the dealer will replace ur xm unit and give u a new one with ur same subscription....


take it to ur dealer and ask them to look up the tsb.. its like 0069 or somethign here let me check.

Yes, there is a TSB on this. Your dealer will replace your XM unit free of charge and it will fix this issue.

And, unplugging the aux cable alone does not disable the XM unit. You need to unplug the XM module itself to remove it as an input from your headunit



Also, review This Thread on the Neo Prolink... and how it doesn't work as advertised anyway. (yet.)

Is this true for both the navi and non? When I disconnect the cable under my non-navi head-unit it does indeed make XM disappear as an input.

OK, I have navi, but I can't imagine they are different. I haven't tried since I had the replacement TSB done tho. You may be right.
