Replying to: cms1528 (Aug 09, 2006 5:54 am) I just purchased the Sirius Sportster and want to hardwire it to my 2005 Avalon XL. I have no idea how to hardwire it and don't even know if my stereo has a hookup for it since it is not the JBL system. I want to take it out and have a look, but don't know how to get it out. Do you know where I could find the installation instructions online or did you by chance scan them onto your computer?? Thanks for any help you can offer.   Casey
#30 of 67 05 Limited XM Radio by vicm Oct 09, 2006 (12:23 pm)
Have my 05 Limited 18 months, did not have XM radio. Now planing to have it installed. I have read almost all the messages pertaining to XM on this forum. Would like an update. Does the 06 have the antennae on the trunk? Does the 06 XM kit fit the 05 Limited. Or are they the same add on kits? The Toyota dealer quotes 499 plus tax. Asked the same questions as above and they didn't know what the kit had. Replies to this message: cms1528 (Oct 10, 2006 3:44 pm)

Replying to: vicm (Oct 09, 2006 12:23 pm) The kit for the 05 and 06 are the same, but know this the antenna can be interchanged with any type of satellite antenna. You can buy one at circuit city, best buy and plug it into the black box in the trunk and then put it most anywhere in you car or on it you like. Good luck

#34 of 67 2006 Avalon xls Sirius Radio Problem by goatee Nov 28, 2006 (5:32 pm)
Purchased my 06 Avy XLS IN 11/05 with factory installed Sirius (it's actually on the factory sticker). Had trouble from day 1 - Only the left side speakers would work. The dealer blamed the Sirius and who blamed Toyota. It went back and forth a few times until Toyota installed a new "chip" in the trunk. All was well until today and I noticed the same problem over again. Can only hear the satellite on the left speakers. FM/AM, CD are all ok. Any suggestions here?? By the way - I love the Sirius lineup. Replies to this message: cms1528 (Dec 05, 2006 2:19 pm) kjarob (Dec 13, 2006 7:09 am) goatee (Dec 14, 2006 5:14 pm) kjarob (Dec 22, 2006 6:00 am) and 3 more...

Replying to: goatee (Nov 28, 2006 5:32 pm) I installed the sirius in my limited myself. I was losing the signal all the time for extended periods. dealer gave me a new black box and no problems since.   The way its hooked up should have no effect on your speakers, I mean that the wire harness plugs into the rear of the radio. That harness comes from the black box, so it has no bearing on the speakers (at least you would think).   Seems to me that there is a bad connection inside the radio. Any way if you are getting a sirius signal and its coming out of a speaker than its not the black box. has to be in the radio. Nevertheless the dealer should give you a new radio if your under warranty. Good Luck

Replying to: goatee (Nov 28, 2006 5:32 pm) I installed a Sirius tuner in my 2007 Subaru Impreza last weekend and have the same problem where only the left side speakers produce sound (for the most part). Occasionally left and right will work, but it is off and on. My Sirus tuner is connected to a JVC head unit and eveything (CD, FM, Line In) else works perfectly with all speakers. This leads me to believe that it is most likely the Sirius tuner and not the JVC unit. It could be the cable as well ... all of the connections have been checked and are fine. I am getting a replacement Sirius unit.   Just wondering how you made out on your problem and if you replaced the Sirius tuner or if it was something else?   Cheers.

Replying to: kjarob (Dec 13, 2006 7:09 am) Brought it into the dealer last Saturday. The Toyota technician said that it was definitely the Sirius receiver and ordered a new unit. This will be the third Sirius unit to be installed. I tried to argue to have both the head unit and satellite units replaced since this is the exact same problem I had when the car was delivered, but he would not go for it. I will keep you updated.   Happy Holidays Replies to this message: kjarob (Dec 22, 2006 6:00 am) unknown (Dec 28, 2006 2:22 pm) kjarob (Dec 29, 2006 8:34 am) lagartija (Jan 06, 2007 8:04 am)
