Strange thing happened with my XM and Nav

pup73 · 06-05-2013, 09:03 PM

Hi all,

I have a 2010 LCI 335 with Navigation. I bought it used back in 2/12. I know for a fact the XM was expired/not activated. Well, two days ago my car somehow is now picking up XM. Strange, but I'll take it for now..

Today, when I went to start up car, it seems like my Nav settings were changed. The "night" mode was active, the viewing distance (ie 200ft, 400ft, 1/2 mile etc) was changed. And all my radio presets where gone. XM was still active. I reprogrammed all my stations. We'll see tomorrow.

Any thoughts? FWIW I do have the latest firmware and maps that are available. And my car has been coded. No other electronic related settings seem to have bee affected. FWIW I also am JB4 and those settings are fine.

Any help would be appreciated,

-c

SiriusXM was doing a free preview for the past two weeks. All devices with an XM receiver would have received signal during that time.

Navigation settings are weird, however.

+1 on SiriusXM free preview.

As to the settings -- You didn't happen to grab you second key instead of your usual key yesterday, did you?
