Default XM Help Needed

I installed XM Radio approximately 1 year ago in my 02 and it has been great...until this week. It's not a daily driver so I don't know when it stopped working but it can not have been more than 7-10 days ago.

Everything appears to function correctly; the unit is receiving the channels, etc. but when I hit the CD/AUX button on the radio it goes to the XM setting (aux) and there is absolutely no sound. After about 20-30 seconds, I get an error (err) message on the radio and it kicks me out of the AUX and into the AM band...

Any ideas??

Thanks in advance for the help!

Had this happen a couple times when I first hooked up my XM Commander. My issues was the RCA cables. I had a pair that I had lying around that I used (were a couple years old). Replaced them with a new cheap pair that I got with some home stereo equipment and the problem went away. Also try just unplugging everything and reconnecting. May have a loose connection.
