DavidStruff Posted September 3, 2011 Report Share Posted September 3, 2011 I have a 2011 SEL with the 202A package. That doesn't come with HD radio, right? For a brief moment yesterday I saw a little yellow HD Radio icon pop on and off in the lower left corner while cycling through FM1 and FM2. But AFAIK, I don't have HD Radio, right? I couldn't get it to happen again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidStruff Posted September 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 This happened to me again today. I started up the car and pressed the power button and when it came on, I saw the yellow HD symbol in the bottom left again. Was there was at least two seconds but then went away.

Dingo Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 I think you do, as long as you have the big touchscreen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilsons66604 Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 You will only see the yellow HD icon if you are receiving HD. In my town, radio stations are far enough away that the reception switches back and forth between HD and standard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cal3thousand Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 (edited) What these guys said ^ But I think you might also be confusing satellite (Siruis/XM) with HD Radio (FM) (I could be wrong) Edited September 7, 2011 by cal3thousand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidStruff Posted September 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 You will only see the yellow HD icon if you are receiving HD. I understand that but I don't see the icon on FM frequencies I KNOW have subcarriers, which is why I didn't think my package included HD radio. HD isn't mentioned on SEL's on http://www.ford.com/crossovers/edge/models/ and I don't see it as an available option which is also why I didn't think I had it. But that little icon popped up for a second again today when I started my car. After a second it went away and never came back. So I am stumped.

I do have it on the MKX, and I know I have the ability to shut it off when I'm in the radio quadrant by accessing the options in the lower right corner, or at the bottom of the screen, I can't remember.

choff1138 Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 I've looked for references to it in Options but have nothing It could just be something on the screen getting illuminated because it is in the background of the software. I know that if I push in the right spot, it will say that I have turned on my AC seats which I don't have. Doesn't really turn anything on, just looks like it does.

Wow, I wish I knew that before. That would be cool (no pun intended) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cal3thousand Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 No, I've had XM radio since 2004 so I know the difference between Sirius and HD. Ok. from what I've been seeing online, HD radio only comes with the black Sony unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
