At the end of the installation I went to initialize the sirius system and while my head unit sees and recognizes the CD changer it does not see the sirius box. The install was very straightforward so I don't think that anything is wrong there; is there some sort of change I need to initiate with the head unit or some sort of switch that needs to be thrown on the CD changer?
Thanks in advance for your help and Happy 4th of July.

Paul,
You are probably not in US mode, try this to see if this gets you up and running:
1. Turn on your car
2. If the radio is on, turn it off
3. Turn the radio on
4. Immediately push and hold the SELECT button until the radio serial number shows (5 to 10 seconds)
5. Use the < > keys to cycle through the menu
To set your radio to USA mode, set the < > keys to cycle through the menu until you see the AREA mode. The radio will likely be set to NOAREA. Use the 1 or 2 buttons to switch to different areas, set it to US.
If this doesn't do the trick, I will need to know your production date and whether you have CD or DVD-based Navigation.
