Furuno BBWX4 Interface

Furuno Fan
Have had Sirius Marine subscription for a year no problem. This weekend added music to my subscription, pinged the unit and my JL Audio is showing an error code "Check SXM Tuner". Called sirius and they said with the furuno I need an additional piece of equipment? My Seavee was built for me last year and the build sheet includes "Furuno Satellite Weather/Audio Satellite Receiver".

Any help would be appreciated.
 
You first talk about the BBWX4 and then you talk about the JL audio unit. The BBWX4 is not compatible to be controlled by JL audio. Normally the TZT2 would tune channel, then the raw audio would go into your AUX input on the radio for amplification. JL Radio would allow volume control only. If the JL audio has Sirius module that can tune, then that would be activated and wouldn't involve the BBWX4 at all. No idea what Sirius is talking about for extra hardware. We don't claim BBWX4 audio tuning support except via the TZT1/TZT2/TZT3

ok so I checked wiring diagrams and it would seem the audio out on the BBWX4 should go to the right/left aux in on the back of the JL Audio Unit. The JL Audio would then be set to Aux input vs Sirius and I can control the volume on the head unit but the channel selection is thru the TZT2 correct?

The extra hardware is actually a separate xm tuner to plug straight into the JL unit which defeats the use of the BBWX4.

Sound correct?

Yes, that sounds totally correct to me.
