Default Wierd MODE button behavior with SLS/SLI in RX350...

Well here is something ***very wierd*** I discovered in my Vaistech SLS/SLI configuration on my RX350 when trying to use the MODE button on the steering wheel to switch between all audio choices. Here is what happens...

Starting on SAT1....I press the MODE button -> goes to SAT2
From SAT2...press MODE button -> goes to SAT3
From SAT3...press MODE button -> goes to FM1

From FM1...press MODE button...here is where it goes wacky. It goes to FM2 for about a half a second....and then resets back to SAT1! Using my mode button on the steering wheel....there is no way for me to get to either TAPE or DISC functionality (including CD2 where I have the iPod emulation with the SLI) using the MODE button. Direct access via the buttons on the radio assembly works fine.

Anybody else able to confirm this behavior? More specifically...since I have both the SLS and SLI...I am curious if this happens if ONLY the SLS or SLI is installed.

Any confirmations, thoughts or ideas is appreciated....

Thanks,

I am having a similar problem when I hit a bump on the right side. The steering wheel feedback from the bump seems to be making the mode button react in a bizarre manner. I have not contacted the dealer yet. I dont have SAT but I do have an ipod. Good luck! Andy
