No AUX or SAT radio in menu solution

Hopes this helps someone. Problem was a new to me 07 S600 would not display AUX or SAT radio as an option. Checked build sheet to ensure it was equipped.Tried all the other "fixes" first with no change. Tried removing fuses, disconnect battery, say Voice Command SAT Radio, and clicked my heels twice. No dice.

I next looked for the actual SAT radio module found in trunk of car near driver side wheel closer to tail light. Put start button in position 1 , all fuses/batteries still plugged in. I uplugged SAT module for about 5 min. Pluggged it back in then started the car. Scrolled through command and AUX and SAT and other options are now displaying.

On hold with XM to activate my sub to this car now. Hope this helps someone.

I didn’t have that problem, but I was happy to get the free Sirius XM trial subscription when I bought the car. I had forgotten just how incredibly crappy the old Sirius receivers were. Even in wide open terrain with no cloud cover the signal drops out at random for a few seconds here and there. No way I’d pay for that. I added a Bluetooth dongle to the AUX input so I can stream music while on the road out in the boonies.

Of course when you lose cell coverage too... well, there’s always FM or CDs.
