Hi Everyone,
I'm in the market for a 2006 TL. I'm a little concerned about the radio as a whole. I sat in my friends TL and the radio didnt seem sharp at all. I noticed it doesnt come with Bose anymore. Is the current stereo better than Bose that they got rid of it? Any info would help. Thanks!

#19 of 23 Acura TL (2001) radio issues by cdrowan

Hi! I have a radio issue with my TL (2001). First of all we can't figure out which fuse runs the radio, assuming it IS a fuse that is the problem. We went thru the hood and could not figure it out so we replaced all fuses possible. We also replaced the fuses on the side (drivers seat side). Unforuntatley we have misplaced our manual. I am hoping it is not the actual radio itself but almost certain it is not b/c the cigarette lighter does not work either so we must be missing something. ANY HELP would be greatly appreciated

I just got the 2010 TL with the Tech Pkg...Everything is set up except the XM radio. I can't move beyond the EMERGENCY CHANNEL 247 and one other station. I also see the Radio code flashing..I don't understand and want to avoid a visit to the dealer..Any suggestions will be much appreciated

I would call XM and have them send a HIT to your radio. Just give them the VIN number of your car and radio ID and they can bring it back to life. I would have your radio turned on when on the phone as the HIT to your radio will be relatively fast.
 
Also, it is a SHAME the dealer did not check this before you took delivery of the car. Let us know how it turned out
 
OH, here is the phone number you should call 1-800-374-0600 or 1-800-967-2346
 
These are direct numbers right into customer service...

I think you are getting killed- they just sent me some special rates to woe me back because I had cancelled my subscription. Here are the rates-
6.49 per month for a year or 4.98 per month for six months- I am not biting because they also want 14.99 to reactivate each radio.
I liked the XM in both our cars but I used the Bluetooth Radio and HDD so much that at times I hardly even used the XM function.My wife sticks to her Conneticut AM 600 station- so in essence, we were giving money away.
