  2. CHECK THE ANTENNA CONNECTION 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the Satellite Radio Antenna connector at the rear of the Radio.
    3. Inspect the Satellite Radio Antenna connection.

      Was the antenna connection clean and secure?

      Yes 

      • Go To  3

      No 

      • Clean and secure the antenna connection as necessary.
      • Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
  3. CHECK THE ANTENNA AND CABLE 
    1. Connect the Radio Diagnostic Tool (special tool #9977-6-13, Adapter, Long RF RG-58 Fakra) and (special tool #9977-6-SATXM, Antenna, Satellite/Sirius XM) to the Satellite Antenna connection on the back of the Radio.
