Default Need some C6 radio help!

Hey, I have a 2009 base C6 Convertible, with the base radio/CD player. The car came with XM Radio. Several months back I added a USA Spec PA11, hooked in through the XM module under the waterfall, works like a champ.

So, a couple days ago, I had been listening to FM, and decided to listen to the iPhone. Plugged it in, same as always, and the phone lights up, getting power. When I push the band button, it goes to FM2, the AM, then back to FM1!! Both of the XM bands are gone! I went around several times, turned the car on and off, no dice. The two XM bands are gone.

I removed the waterfall, looked at all the connections, everything looks to be in place, nothing unplugged. What happened?? And better, how do I get it working again?

Input by folks way smarter than me (which would be pretty much everyone), is appreciated.

Do a search, the answer is out there, but I believe you can get it working again by pulling the fuse or briefly disconnecting the Pa11.

We have a winner! Pulled the fuse, put it back, and it works again.

Thanks!
