How to : AM radio (before future SW update)

[Rocket808]

Someone else said it but I thought I’d show some screenshots. I couldn’t figure out how to access AM from the infotainment screen, as my selections were only FM and SiriusXM

But if you use the steering wheel selector, you can select multiple things to display on the center of the dashboard screen. Select Audio. Then click on AM.

AM will then pop up on the infotainment screen, use the keypad and enter the radio stations, and hold and save them.

hope this helps.

There must be some update that enables AM selection via the IP. AM is not displayed for me when I follow your steps.

It doesn’t display when you select audio on the steering wheel?

if not, you possibly don’t yet have the software update that enables AM radio

Too bad you can't rearrange the radio presets by simply sliding the tiles. Or can you?

I don't think so. But I move tiles by first selecting the tile I want to move, then hold down on the place I want to go. This effectively saves the station to that tile.

This does wipe out the tile/station you held down on, so duplicate it somewhere first (or just reenter it.)

Correct.

Wish I could disable FM too. Half the time I try to get a not-garbage source of audio working, it switches to FM by default, which has no antenna on my truck, so it's just static.

This was very helpful, thank you! I listed to our sports radio station regularly and the HD FM feed isn't available consistently. I had no idea AM was even an option until this post.
