XM radio fault

My 2015 has a check antenna fault on the screen went I switch to XM radio. Navigation and all other functions work fine. Any checks before I order a new antenna?.

 

Is antenna tight on roof? Any recent work that may have bumped a wire in headliner, floor, or dash? (not sure where that wire is routed actually)

If it's like my Sequoia was, antenna has about 5 inch lead of wire to a plug/harness above headliner. Then that wire goes into back of stereo. So that's 2 plugs (1 at stereo and 1 in headliner) that could potentially get loose or have wire pulled free if anything pulled hard enough.

 

Welcome to the forum.
Have you recently pulled the radio out for any reason?

I'd certainly check the connection in back of the radio before ordering parts.

It's going to be this connector in the XM tuner under the Entune radio.

 

thx guys, no recent work on the truck. I will check the plugs first before I spend any money. I live down a bumpy dirt road so may have loosened the connector. Great to be part of the group.

There is also a connector J153 close to the antenna.
If you can get to it, you might check that too.
Looks something like this.



It is behind the passenger A pillar



These days I run XM with the phone app, but I have an aftermarket radio with CarPlay..

Good luck..
