When you turn radio off, do you get date on MID? Does date go when you turn radio on?

Its possible that the MID has been programmed not have a radio, also possible that the remote on function isn't getting as far as MID.

If you have steering wheel controls, when it gets dark, see if these light up when radio comes on.

Thats a common way to 'reprogram' the MID not to have a radio.  Doesn't need a tech2 that way ;D
