Anyone else having issues with the weather map with the new upgrade?

I got the weather maps for the first couple of weeks, now whenever I go to them they are blank. I should mention that I subscribe to Travel Link (2 year subscription) - so that shouldn't be the issue.

Not sure if this is a Sirius issue or a MFT issue, so I'll do a fuse pull when I get the chance soon, but wanted to know if others are experiencing this issue.

After the update I was no longer getting weather or gas info... I had to put the source on sirius, goto channel 1, and call sirius and have them send an activation signal (you can do it through the automated menus) ... about five minutes later all of travel link started working again.

maybe I'll try that - thanks!
 












I tried that with no luck. The only thing that worked was fuse-29.

Imagine that ;) lol ... fuse 29 is going to be the longest running joke of my life...

When one of my users here at work has a computer problem, I instantly quip "Did you try pulling fuse 29?" .. they just sit w/ a blank stare, but I get it. haha
 






:)

Even after the "performance" update - I've pulled the fuse probably 3-4 times.

I think there might be a buck to be made selling retrofit kits which replace the fuse with a toggle switch or button for a quick reset!

Why cant this thing just work?
