OK, Issue resolved! Unfortuneatley, I don't have a "fix" except to keep trying... As I do every time I get in, I use my iphone to go to sirius.com, log in, and click on the ESN and select "Resent Activation" I've done this at least 50 times, and it's never worked... Today, it worked... The sirius is working as it should... Just keep doing that, maybe eventually it will take. Good luck!

Ford won't do anything. They have no reset procedure. Sirius won't do anything, they say take it to Ford. I stopped in at the dealer, they looked in the service manual, there is no Hard Reset for that unit. They did some thing on the head unit to see if it was logging any errors, and none. Vehicle is no longer under warranty, so $600 to replace. I don't think the hardware is faulty, but this is because of a software bug, as they activated fine for the preview. Something happened when it took activation. My theory is that inactivated radios listen to the data stream for instructions. When they received the instruction to activate, it did. When it received the instruction to deactivate, I think also deactivated itself from "listening" to the data stream as well. Sirius has offered up a free radio, the kind with FM modulator. I want to keep the factory installed, though, I'm anal about that, and having everything cleanly installed. Plus. I paid for what I have, it's not fault it screwed up. I'm still trying to find out what can be done. I'll continue to provide updates.

Well... So far, I've disconnected the battery for 30 minutes, then called and tried again, no luck. I pulled the sirius unit out, opened it up, looking for a battery or button or anything to reset it, no luck.

Yeah, We have an 07 as well, the subscription expires. We started a new sub, and no matter how many times they send the "signal" it will not activate. After about 3 hours, they got someone else on the phone saying I had to visit the dealer, and get a "hard reset"
