"Sat fault"

This message just popped up on my radio display today. Just wondering if anyone has run into this before and if so what was the deal?

I'll take it in if I have to but thought there might be something simple to check first.

Everything else in the system works fine, just no satellite radio. I do not have the Nav unit. Single CD analog radio.

From all I have seen and read, this is an issue with the sat unit and will need the dealer to diagnose.

You can try to contact Sirius to send another signal, but it probably will not work.

Worked for me. Pulled the fuse then turned the ignition on. Then back off and put the fuse in. Called sirus and had them redo their stuff.
