Satellite Radio Screen Issues?

I need help guys. My satellite radio was working for a while on a trial setup and one day it just stopped.

I went and purchased a Sirius 1 year subscription and am having issues activating this head unit.

Problems:
- I push the "SAT" button on the head unit and it just displays a phone number and my ESN number. It does not give me any option to click on the "subscribe" screen or anything. It is like it is a dead screen with 0 options available.

Also when I go to the SAT screen the "aquiring signal" never shows.
Everything else on the headunit and NAV are functioning properly.

Any ideas?

Alright so I am taking my car in to the dealership on Tuesday. I will keep people posted on what the cause of this is.

You have to call Sirius with the radio on and give them the number displayed. A signal is downloaded to activate the receiver once the financials are sorted.

And be sure that you have a clear view of the sky. Satellite reception in the Peoples Republic of California is weak due to position of the satellite.
