Update!

So, with the modem out, I lost all satellite comms, thus no NAV...
So, I put it back and removed the black and the grey micro coax wires that go between the modem and the main board, and now I have NAV back, BUT, if I am directly under a tower, and I mean literally under a tower, I still get a couple of bars, so I tried to do a "service call", and search in the the NAV system, both failed, so I'm thinking it is not capable of transmitting data, but not absolutely sure. If someone knows of a method to measure actual signal outside of the Jeep, and maybe data transfer, that would be cool.
I would try the hotspot, but I don't want to pay for a subscription, just to do a one time check.
Can't say for sure about the SiriusXM, as I HAD some stations during all this, and they stopped, says I'm not subscribed, but I bought the Jeep used, and it was active, so it might be a coincidence that the subscription ran out.

So I followed this method today, and I can confirm this works on my '23 with the 8.4" radio, but like you - I did lose SiriusXM as a result. Is it possible only one of the antenna wires needs to be removed?

All these seem to align with various items discussed in this video. Potentially some of the same methods for the signal might be able to be adapted from here. I believe the GPS stays due to a seperate antenna. There is also a cellular antenna in the drivers speaker cover panel near where the switch for bed outlet goes.
