I have installed this system in my car. The head unit (CDA-9851) works fine on CD & FM mode but I can't get anything out of it when I switch mode to Sirius. Everyhtng appears to be connetected properly as the unit locates chn 255, which I believe it should. I have looked through both manuals and both are pretty slim on the troubleshooting chapter. Has anyone else had this problem? Any suggestions or advice?

I can select other chn but that is the constant test chn, I get no "noise" form any chn! I magine there is a simple step that needs to be taken but I can't find any notes in any manual.
