So for about a month i'd get the overheat message and the radio would stop playing (sirius) cd and radio worked fine (nav system). then one day it just died.

now i see the screen and can navigate to station 184 but no music, nor do i see channel information displayed. just the normal navigation up display. is it the receiver or the anntennea? or something else?

took apart receiver and see no burned components.

I added Sirius in the ZHP since I bought her (roughly 4 years ago), and my best guess having installed this in five different vehicles is you have a receiver problem. If you are picking up 184, the antenna is not the issue. Assuming you are running the stock setup with the receiver in the driver's side trunk, any chance it may have gotten wet? If not, I wonder if the issue could be a circuit board issue within the receiver?
