It should just be a matter of activating it on that head unit. The truck should have it already. Go to Sirius as a source and the preview channel should come up with a phone number, call it then change the channel to 0 or 1 (can't remember) and it will show you the radio Id number. That is the number they need to activate it.

I have a '17 STX as well. Sirius is not listed as an audio source. The truck even came with a Sirius channel listing and activation code.

After a little research, it seems that the STX's are not equipped for Sirius.

Check out Vais Technolgy, they make a kit for around 300.00 bucks. They work really well.


A upgraded cd player mech that adds Sat radio is about 600.00 bucks.

Must be a package option. My 17 STX has it. I'm guessing you don't have the satellite radio antenna on your roof?

It's odd but I have an 2017 STX too that doesn't have the Sirius source. It does have an satellite radio antenna on the roof too. I thought all cars had Satellite now but I guess not. I didn't plan to purchase anyway but like the free trials.

If you have the a antenna, it could be as simple as adding it as a source via Forscan. I know you can remove it as a source via Forscan on the 11-14; not entirely sure if it's possible on the 15+, but I'd imagine so. May be worth looking in to.
