Applicability

Introduction

Some customers with vehicles that are equipped with a PPO/DIO accessory XM Satellite Radio Receiver (P/N 86180-0W030 or 86180-0W031) may exhibit one or more of the following conditions:

^ XM Satellite Radio becomes non-operational or locked while in use.

^ Sound output becomes sporadic or non-existent.

When either of these conditions occur cycling the ignition from "ON"-"OFF"-"ON" restores normal operation.

Improved XM Satellite Radio Receiver exchange units are available to correct this condition.

^ This condition is NOT reception related. Switching modes will not correct the condition.

^ This condition affects XM ONLY - AM/FM reception is normal when this condition occurs.

^ If cycling the ignition key does NOT restore normal operation, this TSIB does NOT apply.
