My radio works on AM, FM and CD player. Satellite just stopped. I contacted Sirius and they cannot help. Radio won’t accept refresh signal. Research indicates two possible issues. A fuse or the satellite module. Please advise. I don’t know where either of these are located in my vehicle. Thank you in advance.

Yes, the fuses the run the Satellite radio are fuse #10 and # 42 in the fuse panel at the left side of the dash. Here is a guide to help you test the fuses for power and the radio wiring diagrams so you can see how the system works.

if the fuses are good you might want to check the Satellite radio receiver. Check out the images (below). Please let us know how it goes.
