Magnadyne M9900CDS error in my 06 Tour

[rctour]

I have made several attempts to access the Sirius mode on my dash radio but keep getting an "EEP INIT" message and consequently won't allow me to proceed into the setup process, what is it trying to tell me?

My M9900CDS came as "Standard" equipment and states on the radio it's "Sirius ready." When it comes as standard equipment and says it's Sirius ready shouldn't it work? The rest of the radio works.

Sirius ready just means that you can buy a sirius module and plug it in and the radio will control it . you still have to pay for the service .

UPDATE:

The tech for the radio emailed me saying the unit needs a receiver plugged into the back of it and a Sirius antenna.

Ready means "squat"! A better term might have been "capable".
