My delphi myfi xm2go won't turn on. The charger has a little light on so i assume that the charger works, but resetting it and taking the battery out and putting it back in doesn't work, so i have no idea what to do.
I have the same problem. I finally was able to get Delphi Tech Service and found out that these units have a flaw. they have been going out after about 14-18 months and there is no known repair... neither does Delphi offer a repair service for this problem.
Someone said there is a CHARGING pin that is askew - you need to carefully move it over a little bit - so that it makes better contact. I have cleaned the pins, etc. but never adjusted them - anyone else tried that yet??? help!! I can't stand it..makes me crazy going on and OFF!!
After over a month of leaving it in the home docking cradle it finally came back to life!! Just bizarre. I did try holding the reset button in for even longer times (30-60 seconds). Fortunately XM suspended my subscription payments for three months while leaving the radio id active in hopes that the radio would come back on. Payments will resume after the three months.

The power adapter is the problem.
I have two of these units.
The one I was using died and will no longer power on.
So, I called xm and switched to my back-up.
That one's dead, too.
I tried two adapters, four batteries and neither radio works.
BUT, I just happened to try a third adapter I had.
After re-setting the device (Take out battery, depress reset button with a pin. It's in the upper left in back. It's a VERY small hole.)
Then, I plugged the cord back in, and the battery is charging.
Apparently, the power adapters have a limited life span.
I'll be picking up a few new ones now.

My unit will not play or charge anymore. When in the charging adaptor, the screen just flickers without turning on. I have tried taking the battery out and it does nothing.
it is charged but won't turn on
As of this week, I too am experienced the identical problem of no screen content and flickering while attempting to charge. Maybe all the units are going out at the same time?
Same problem here, came in to work this morning and the screen was blank. Nothing, won't turn on, removed the battery, hit the reset, still nothing. What's up?
i have the same prob no power won't come on ,i even bought a new batt
Listen to the radio going to work, get in car to go home... no radio. Fidget and play around in the car, but still won't come on. haven't tried all the remedies yet, but from the description on the website, doesnt look good.
I have this problem when operating under battery power and it runs all the way down. The MyFi unit shuts off and when I put it back in the home dock/cradle, no response (no "battery charging" message, no power on/off). This has happened a couple of times in the past. I tried the little paper clip reset button, battery in and out, so I finally gave up, leaving it in the cradle. Then, miraculously, it comes back to life after several hours to a day or so (I can't remember exactly how long). This was after support at Delphi suggested holding in the reset button for at least 10 seconds. This is the third or fourth time this problem has happened but I was getting a little impatient, so I thought I'd check online for a fix.
I saw somewhere else someone had done a "hard" reset. Is that different from the little paper clip one? I usually don't lose my settings with that one. I would call that a soft reset.
Same problem
unit wont turn on
wont turn on battery charged reset
Unit will freakishly work sometimes when it's in the charger. Will not work out of the charger. Bought a new battery, reset, nothing seems to correct this problem.
I can't get my delphi myfi to turn on. Do I need to get a new battery?
absolutely no trouble for a couple years. Now no sound, from radio either fom headphones or fm transmitter. tried paper clip reset, battery removal. display good can change channels but no sound. Unit is not in mute either. any suggestions?
Same with my myfi. Does anyone know what Delphi is saying? Are they willing to replace them?
Mine does the same thing. Blanks out. Sometimes I can leave it off and it will magically come to life a few days later. Very frustrating. New battery has not helped. Saw the post further down the Delphi is not doing anything to solve it.
