Default Can Someone Help?

Hi, I am a new owner of a 2005 A6 and love it. I bought a Sirius radio on Ebay and went to hook it up tonight and nothing I called Sirius to have them turn me on but my car is saying No Radio Found. I called the dealer and they gave me the OEM part number and there were three plugs free near my Nav system. I plugged the two antenna leads in and then the center plug (six prong) and still nothing. There is still one free port on the receiver and I am wonder if I am missing something and then of course I break a wire on the connection plug that now has to be sodered or fixed. Can anyone point me in the right direction other then the dealer who will just about rape me? Here is a link to what I bought - http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=120245495 713&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=002

Thanks, Mark

Default the receiver should have two skinny long black plugs and two colored antenna leads

you are probably missing one of the black ones. just reach back in there and find it. it should be tied up with the other ones. it should not be all that difficult

Default sounds like you did not connect the MOST (fibre optic) cables in that 3rd connection.

...the MOST cables will allow your sirius tuner to communicate with your MMI headunit.
