what year is your RX?
i thought RX's can't display audio info on the NAV screen.. hence, no "AUDIO" button

Yup, that's the problem. In CD mode it will display track info on the head unit; in CD-MP3 mode it will display it on the Audio screen of the NAV unit.

Hopefully they installed the Vaistech unit somewhere easy to get to - they have to flip two DIP switches on it to change the mode!

Good luck,
