  If your Wet Sounds Marine Equipment displays “No Signal”, it means the SiriusXM Connect Tuner isn't getting a satellite signal. Make sure your vehicle is outside with a clear view of the sky and that the SiriusXM magnetic mount antenna is on a metal surface outside your vehicle, away from obstructions. Check the antenna cable for damage or kinks. For more details, see the SiriusXM Connect Tuner installation manual. If the cable is damaged, replace the antenna; you can find SiriusXM products at your local car audio retailer or at www.siriusxm.com.
