Sirius radio issue

Fleetwood Excursion on Spartan chassis, Have a Visteon CD-6 radio w/Sirius and for no apparent Sirius stopped working, am/fm radio works fine, Sirius people say nothing wrong on their end. Have checked conections, on the Sirius box, & antenna looks ok, can't find a fuse for it though, Sirius box is mounted seperate from radio, anyone have similar issue, any ideas ?

Probably the Sirius box itself. I have one for a 2006 F-250 in the box I bought for my son but he didn't use it. Let me know if you want it.

The radio will probably have a separate fuse. Check it first, then try another antenna. Then junk it and install a portable unit.

I just replaced my serius radio docking station, don't know what your system is but mine is a docking station separate from the radio hardwired to the radio. mine was located in the cabinet above my dash. It is the device that sends the serius signal from the serius antenna to your radio.

let me add that the my docking station is a SCV DOC 1B the problem was the what they refer to as a docking station, and another device they call a stratus sv3 radio plugs into that.

Mine is a seperate unit mounted on firewall, just starting to troubleshoot it, and it is serious when you can't listen to Fox News while driving down the road too much technology and we get spoiled
