the radio question help

on the radio display to day when turning the key on (radio on) the radio display displayed CAL ERR and then reverts to the station and works as normal. oners manual says to see dealer. is there something i can do to fix it. was i something some one did? this is a RDS radio. my XM radio in the las 4 days after sitting over night ( its wired in the same way the radio/acc circuit is) reverts to ch # 1 in stead of the last preset.

Re: the radio question help

I have seen the CAL ERR on my RDS radio a couple of times, but it has always "gone away" pretty quickly and never seemed to be a big deal.

The XM going back to ch 1 could be a connection issue, like it is loosing voltage overnight or maybe the connection is being "bumped" loose.

Take Care,
