Perform Power cycle (defined below). 4. Verify that “no audio” condition still exists (Review all channels 2 through 239, documenting those channels with no audio). 5. Have the XM advisor Deactivate module, and verify that the deactivation is received by the receiver (Channels 0 and 1 should be seen as the only channels available. This could take 5+ minutes). 6. Power cycle (Should still see only channel 0 and channel 1 present after this power cycle). 7. Activate receiver with the SiriusXM programming package appropriate for the capability of the audio system. 8. Wait for at least several minutes. Do not attempt to change from channel 1.
