I have a Sirius XM Snap that operates thru the FM band on the radio and it operates fine thru the Jensen radio. But, I would like to plug it into aux port on the back of the radio, so I don't have to change frequencies when a station interferes with the Sirius signal. I opened up the dash and pulled the radio and found that there was already something plugged into the aux. rca jacks. Does anyone have any idea know what might be plugged into those jacks? When I press the aux. button on the front nothing comes on, so I am thinking I can just unplug what ever is in there.

Come on guys, 15 views and nobody has any idea? I guess I'll just have to unplug them and see what happens.

On mine It goes to the surround sound splitter.

Do you guys mean to the two rca jacks on the splitter that say low level, left output and right outout? I have nothing on those jacks. However I moved the splitter box over to the left cabinet along with the surrond sound so I could put my dish receiver where the surround sound was. And I may have left those plugs in the center cabinet. If that's the case, I don't think I need them hooked up. Tell me does your surround sound play thru the radio on auxillary?

Why not go ahead connect the snap as you want and then locate whats missing from the removing of the existing aux plug and let us know My radio uses all the surround speakers

Mine does too and I don't have anything connected to the surround sound splitter box besides the speaker wires. I'm sure the radio is connected to the surround sound speakers by the speaker wires coming out of the radio. Those plugs I am talking about are aux. in so they have nothing to do with the output to the surround sound speakers. I guess I'm going to have to do what you suggest and see what happens from there. Its not hard to remove that front panel.

Ok, I did it. Everything works fine. I can still run the TV thru the surround sound and the radio plays thru all the surround sound speakers up front. The Snap plays thru the radio on aux, so all is good. I can't for the life of me figure out what was plugged into the aux. in, wahtever they were, they are just hanging in there now and nothing seems to be affected.
