FM Radio Issue

[Resist]

My FM Radio used to show a bunch of stations, now there is nothing. So I direct tuned a few stations but I don't remember all the local stations, is there a way for it to search for them? Also, pressing the forward/backward arrows only goes to station 87.7, nothing else. I'm on the latest software update, 2019.32.1.

Are you sure they are gone? I notice many times in either TuneIn or Streaming that most of my saved stuff is gone, until I hit on of the options in that part of the music app and go back and voila, they are back.
For FM, hit favorites and then some of the other choices and then back to favorites and see if they come back.

Yes they are gone. I've tried everything already that you have suggested. I should be able to see stations when I open the FM Radio, but I don't.

You can try a reboot.

I've rebooted several times already. There isn't even a presets option anymore.

There are other FM radio glitches going on. Several people have reported that it won't play. Mine shows my saved favorite stations but I can't select any of them and the one that it is on doesn't play and shows a spinning icon.

I can select and play my favorite stations just fine. Just can't search and don't have any presets.

My FM favourites were still showing but not working anymore, just showing spinning icon. So I deleted them and searched them again, added them to favourite once more and everything is working now.

 

[Resist]

everything is working now.

But do you have presets working too?

I don't think I can delete mine.

I started a thread on this. My FM Radio has done the exact same thing. Tesla service contacted me and basically told me to attempt to play the FM radio, log the time/date and report it back to them. They got back to me about 2-3 days after I had reported the information and told me they had to order a new radio. when the mobile tech arrives for the service call, Im going to be asking him/her many questions. This seems very odd.

I forgot to mention one other thing, beside missing the "Presets" heading on the left side of the Radio screen, It's also missing the "Stations" heading.

UPDATE: Found the issue. Apparently the body shop that repaired my car from an accident, didn't connect the wire to the FM radio module that's in the C pillar. I found part of the wire hanging out in top right of the trunk.
