Gateway Control Module Question

Recommended Posts

I posted this on February 5. It shows 392 Views but zero (0) responses. I posted in the Lincoln Motor Company Discussion forum. Maybe I will have better luck here. I thought the GCM may be generic to all Lincolns so as to garner some discussion. So, here goes again....

 

I'm curious if anyone knows if the GCM is what allows information to display in the Instrument Cluster in a 2020 Navigator. Specifically, my SiriusXM song info does not appear there, as it should. There is no setting to make this happen. The song title appears on every other audio source I may use, including Pandora, for example. 

 

I have had the vehicle in 3 times for this. Frankly, I just don't think they understand the issue, no matter how many times I show them. They have replaced the APIM. No dice. They discovered a bad cell in my battery and replaced it. Did not fix the issue. 

 

The dealer has supposedly reached out to the Ford Tech Hotline, I think is what the service manager said. When I brought the vehicle in a couple weeks ago, I mentioned the GCM. Never heard anything about it after that. 

 

Could a bad GCM be causing this issue of the SiriusXM only sing title not appearing in my Instrument Cluster?

Does this feature work on other current Navigators?  All of the Sirius/XM stuff is licensing related.  The car manufactures and the Sirius negotiate every stupid point... maybe it's no longer part of the package?

Yes. 2 loaners I drove have that. Review videos back to 2018 all show it. It's a fault in my vehicle. Can't be any explanation on why Feb 2020 build Navigators would have deleted that. None I can think of.
