Xm Raido Install Help I Have A 2004 Silverado And Put In A Xm Radio. I Got Power From The Fuse Box On The L/h Dash Panel. My Problem Is That When I Turn Off The Key The Xm Radio Goes Off,but The Dash Radio Stays On For 10 Min Or Until A Door Is Opened Giving Me Static. I Use A Preset On The Dash Radio For The Xm Raido To Send A Signal.
I Tried A Test Light On The Radio Fuses And They Are Hot All The Time. I Assume The Radio Goes Off And On Using The Ground Side Of The Circuit. Am I Right?? If I Am Right, Does Anyone Know Where I Can Pick This Ground Up??
Thanks In Advance For Any Replies....... Freightlinerdale

Here is a guy that installed a Pioneer XM unit in his 2003 Silverado.

Here are some wiring diagrams:

(I found it in the above thread)
Read the thread for more info about hooking it up to RAP (Retained Accessory Power).
I know its a 2003, but the 2003 & 2004 might be the same. I dont know.
