Troubleshooting

The troubleshooting information listed below is for general reference. 

Consult the User Guide for your SiriusXM-Ready headunit for specific 

operating instructions and advisory messages that may be displayed. Your 

headunit may display slightly different messages. 

If you see this on the 

screen:

Try this:

No Signal (NoSignal)

• 

Make sure that the vehicle is outdoors with a clear 

view of the southern sky.

• 

Make sure the Magnetic Mount Antenna is mounted 

outside of the vehicle.

• 

Move your antenna away from any obstructed area. For 

example, if you are parked in an underground garage, 

you should receive a signal after leaving the garage.

Check Antenna (Chek 

Antenna, CHK Antena, 

Chek Ant)

• 

Make sure that the Magnetic Mount Antenna cable is firmly 

and securely plugged into the SXV300 Vehicle Tuner. 

• 

Make sure the antenna cable is not bent or broken.

• 

Turn the headunit off, then on, to reset this message.

has been damaged. Replace the antenna.

plugged into the SXV300 Vehicle Tuner.
