Default FM Presets

Here is my problems with the FM radio Presets. For Example:

Preset 1 - Channel 111
Preset 2 - Channel 222
Preset 3 - Channel 333
Preset 4 - Channel 444
Preset 5 - Channel 555
Preset 6- Channel 666

I'm CURRENTLY on Preset 3 and listening to Channel 333.
- If I press the UP Arrow button on the steering wheel, my radio is changed to Preset 2 - Channel 222 (it should go to Preset 4)
- If I press the DOWN Arrow button on the steering wheel, my radio is changed to Preset 4 - Channel 444 (it should go to Preset 2)

Why does it work BACKWARD? Does your GX act the same? Can we fix it? Thank y'all.

In theory, it's backwards. But if you change stations/channels in accordance of how it's displayed on the screen, it makes sense. No way to fix or adjust this. So you're just going to have to get used to it. A lot of cars I've been in are the same way. Don't worry though, you'll get used to it.

Just think of it as your satellite/dish/cable box. You hit guide and you're on channel 499 but want channel 500. On your remote, you'd hit the "down" button. In theory, it should be decreasing(to 498) but it's correct visually. Hope that makes sense.

I was thinking the same thing, I was trying to think of if I even used AM / FM in the GX, I know for a fact I've never used AM.

I know I just have to get used to (it's harder since I only drive it on weekends). However, my other 4 Lexus vehicles and my Tacoma act in the right manner...oh well...

Yeah, I am finding it a bit counter intuitive.

And yes, I still listen to FM. I like to know what is happening locally where I am.
