Am I doing something wrong or is it normal for the radio to delay coming on??

Sometimes After startup I have to press the power button numerous times

We've got the 6 CD in dash changer and it comes on right away.

Did you push the memory button on the door with the radio switched off?

It remembers the settings you had when you last pushed the button.

If you are on the XM band, it takes a few seconds to acquire the digital channel.

I have the Nav set up and there is a delay ... if you start hitting the on/off button too soon all you end up doing is layering the commands after the intial delay (of which I am sure you are aware) ... learned this the hard way ... now I just wait for it come on ..

If you wait and it still doesn't come on and you have to hit the on/off then maybe you have an issue

Sometimes, if I mess with buttons or settings before turning on the radio there seems to be a delay.

Thanks all I think it has too do with the memory also!

Especially since I am programed as Driver 1 and my fob is number 2
