Question Changing from AM - FM - XM

I know this is probably a stupid question. But I am unable to click from AM to FM to XM.

If I click the Radio AM-FM-Sat button, all it does is take me to a
Preset screen A, B then C. Each screen having 6 preset save options.

So i am finding myself putting one am-fm-xm in each preset list so that i can autotune in which ever mode i am in. Blchhhh.

Also since people do not like questions in seperate threads, is there a way to navigate backwards via sources? It is a pain to be be in preset bank 3 and then have to hit the source button 5 times to get back to preset bank 2.

Wait, how are you putting one AM, one FM, and one XM in each preset list if you just said you can't change from AM to FM to XM? How are you changing the radio bands then?

you can stay in any preset group (a,b,c) and just click on the AM/FM/SAT button instead of Preset A.B.C. button to navigation the radio bands

Another brainiac question from Calvin, duhhhh......just push the Radio button a couple of times and report back to me what happens. It might just cycle through FM, AM, and XM.

Before you try my technique, please use the previously mention gas tank door opening method of banging your head on the steering wheel. If you do that the radio problem should be gone too.

This is another example of people not reading a single thing or having even one active brain cell. Mr calven wins for stupidest threads ever! Maybe we'll see if his next question can be, "How do you start the car?" What ya smokin' Homey? If that's home grown, you need to sell some of it rather than smoke it all.

Why do members continue to answer these questions that are obliviously nothing more than blatant attempts at trolling to get a reaction from you? Stop giving the threads attention and they will cease to be posted. Question asked and answered.

OP, post your next thread only after actually having your car and/or reading the manual for it.
