SIRIUSXM DATA LINK RECEIVER TROUBLESHOOTING

For troubleshooting purposes, check the LRU Information Box on the 'Aux - System Status' Page for SXM
status, serial number, and software version number. If a failure has been detected the status is marked with a
red X.
Selecting the 'Aux - System Status' Page:
1) Turn the large FMS Knob to select the Aux Page Group.
2) Turn the small FMS Knob to select the 'Aux - System Status' Page.
Some quick troubleshooting steps listed below can be performed to find the possible cause of a failure.
- Ensure the installed Data Link Receiver or Iridium Transceiver has an active subscription or account.
- Perform a quick check of the circuit breakers to ensure that power is applied to the Data Link Receiver or
Iridium Transceiver.
- Ensure that nothing is plugged into the MUSIC 1 or MUSIC 2 jacks because that would prevent SiriusXM
radio from being heard.
If a failure still exists, the following messages may provide insight as to the possible problem:
