How to Activate SiriusXM in a New or Used Car

Step 1: Finding the Radio ID

The first step in activating SiriusXM in your car is locating the Radio ID, which is necessary for the activation process.

• For New Cars: Most new vehicles come with a free trial of SiriusXM. To find your Radio ID, simply turn on your radio and tune to channel 0. The Radio ID should display on the screen.
• For Used Cars: If your car is pre-owned, the previous owner may have already activated SiriusXM. To confirm the Radio ID, tune to channel 0 and check the display. If the Radio ID doesn’t appear, consult your car’s manual for specific instructions.

Step 2: Verifying the Subscription Status

Before activating, it’s important to check whether your car already has an active SiriusXM subscription.

• New Cars: If your new car comes with a trial subscription, it should activate automatically when you start the car. If not, you’ll need to activate it manually using the Radio ID.
• Used Cars: If your used car already has an active subscription, you can continue using it without reactivating. However, if the subscription has expired, you’ll need to set up a new one.

Step 3: Activating Your SiriusXM in a New Car

If your new car requires manual activation, follow these steps:

• Step 1: Visit the SiriusXM activation page and enter your Radio ID.
• Step 2: Choose your subscription package. If your car came with a free trial, you can activate it by entering your information without choosing a package.
• Step 3: Confirm the activation and wait for the signal to be sent to your car’s radio. This process may take a few minutes.

Step 4: Activating SiriusXM in a Used Car

Activating SiriusXM in a used car is similar to activating it in a new one, but with a few additional considerations:

• Step 1: Check if there is an existing subscription. If the previous owner left the subscription active, you can continue using it or transfer it to your name.
• Step 2: If there’s no active subscription, visit the SiriusXM activation page, enter the Radio ID, and choose a subscription package.
• Step 3: Complete the activation process and start enjoying SiriusXM.

Conclusion

Activating SiriusXM in a new or used car is a straightforward process that can significantly enhance your driving experience. Whether you’re taking advantage of a free trial in a new vehicle or reactivating SiriusXM in a used one, following these steps will ensure you can enjoy all that SiriusXM has to offer. If you encounter any issues during activation, don’t hesitate to contact SiriusXM customer support for assistance.
