This does not happen on my radio.

After selecting TOP40 106.1:

Note that the TOP40 does display but the 106.1 MHz is still shown but the Station Name and/or artist & song title are not shown

From the View Text here:

The Station Name of "Kiss FM" and the artist(s) "Eminem and Rihanna" and song title "The Monster" are shown.

Why isn't this information: Station Name, Song Title and Artist(s) name shown on the main FM audio page?

It is really stupid if you really have to hit the sequence "Menu" then "View Radio Text" to see this information on each and every song that is played.

This information should automatically be displayed on the main FM display.

So am I missing something or has Honda made a dumb mistake with RDS?

 

Any ideas on how to show the Station ID, Artist and Song Title on the main FM display without resorting to pressing "Menu" then "View Radio Text" on each and every song that is played.

 

Radio stations need to subscribe to the RDS service- many do not- in my area- the larger commercial stations have it and some of the public radio stations & smaller ones do not.

 

It depends on my station. One shows it, while another updates around the end of a song...

 

Where does it show it?

What Display/Sub Menu are you in to see what you describe?

On the Main Audio Display of a FM 106.1 RDS station in Dallas, TX all I see is this:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8m...it?usp=sharing

No Station ID, No Artist, No Song Title is shown only the Music Type: TOP40, "ST" for Stereo and "TEXT" meaning that there is text associated with this RDS station is shown.

Again where can you see this?

I can only see the RDS text here:

The Station Name of "Kiss FM" and the artist(s) "Eminem and Rihanna" and song title "The Monster" are shown.

I am asking again how can this information make it to the Main Audio Screen? Is there some setting I am missing?

 

I am looking for the same info. I could have swore the radio automatically showed the station and song titles at first. Then I started looking through the settings and now it always shows a black screen with the time in upper right corner whenever something is playing. If I want to station and song info I have to go back into the menu.

 

Yesterday, I came across a setting to show RDS info. It was defaulted off.

Menu -> Settings -> Audio IIRC

 

Fitmo's right. For some reason the factory setting is OFF. I'm coming from a 2012 CRV with only the i-MID display - defaulted ON. Moved up to a new 2015 CR-V EX and it has the i-MID and the bigger touchscreen.

Park the car (many functions get grey'd out when car is moving).

You MUST put the radio on FM.

Follow Fitmo's instructions. Turn it to on.

Boom, now it works on BOTH screens.



Also weird thing: sometimes my podcast info won't show when going through bluetooth. Sometimes it does. huh.

 

Assuming you have RDS turned on, incomplete or missing RDS info is a broadcaster issue, not a radio issue. Also, if you don't listen to the same station(s) all the time, RDS info can be slow to update.

 

 

I am experiencing the very same issue! Do you remember how you fixed yours?

 

The nice thing about being old and out of touch with popular culture, is that my infotainment screen can show the name of the artist and the song, and it means nothing to me.
Score a point for being non-relevant to the modern entertainment age!

 

Happened to me after I replaced headlight bulbs with LED headlight. Went through all the settings and can't get the Radio Data System (RDS) screen back.

 

I disconnected the battery and left it disconnected for a few minutes and when I reconnected it I got message saying " "hold down the on-off button for 2 seconds" when I turned the radio on. I complied, and then things were back to normal.

 

I just figured out how to fix mine, I had my daylight brightness off which blacked out the entire screen excluding the clock. Try that one and see if that helps
