Hope someone can help me? I just upgraded my original 2002 Lexus SC-430 GPS Disc from the original Ver. 1.0 to the newest, latest, greatest Ver. 7.1 and the maps are awesome. Does any know how to debug the GPS DVD Disc so I can enter address and everything while I'm driving so I don't have to pull over and stop to do it. Thanks for your help.

Hi everybody,

today I want to share a solution for another annoying problem with my Lexus IS MK 1

The motion lock of the OEM satnav!

After surfing for nights and nights thru various lexus enthusiast boards I found a possible solution.

Most of you know probably all the videos from people who where already able to override this dammed motion lock which prevent you from typing in address in your satnav while driving. The problem with these solutions were all the time, that they were done in the RX, LS or GS on a satnav wit a touchscreen. For that reason it was not possible to use it in an IS WITHOUT a touch screen.

Then I found something different, which is so easy that EVERYBODY can activate this solution on his Lexus IS MK 1 OEM satnav and it’s working on my german IS 300 Sportcross from 2003. Mates that's so cooool

Waiting for IS MK 1 driver has reached the end

The good news are, that this solution:

- is for free
- can be activated in under 15 seconds
- does not need to modify you car electric
- does not need to cut wires
- does not cut the speedometer signal

The bad news are (there are always at least one):

- The hidden override function can only be activated while the car is not in motion (but it stays activated until you switch off the ignition)
- It's a tem solution, it has to be activated every time after the car has startet (ignition switch to on)

But activation is so easy, that you got it quickly in your mind…. Once activated ist doesn't matter if you start or stop your navigation system untill you switch of the ignition. Then it has to be activated again (as said befor it can be done in at least 15 seconds)

OK how does it work right now? The trick is that there is a secret menu in the OEM satnav which is only used for maintenance.

In this usually hidden menu you can activate the “Override” function and then……yes then you can drive & put in your destination at the same time.

The activate this menu just follow the below standing stepps (car has to be NOT in motion)

1. Press the "MENU" button
2. Select and press the "DVD" or “CD” icon on the right hand side at very top of the screen

You should see the ver. of software you are currently using.

Do the following things with the youstick (no beeps will be heart)

3. Press the "UP" arrow on the joystick once
4. Press the "DOWN" arrow on the joystick once
5. Press the "UP" arrow on the joystick once
6. Press the "DOWN" arrow on the joystick once
7. Press the "RIGHT" arrow on the joystick once

You should now see the "secret" menu

8. Press and Hold the "OVERRIDE" until the icon turns green.
9. Press the "BACK" icon on the right hand side at very top of the screen
10. Press the “MAP” button to go back to the regular navigation mode

You may now enjoy driving & inputting your destination at the same time!

IMPORTANT:
Please do NOT use any other function in the secret menu beside “Override” In other boards people who have tested around complain about that the whole system has switched to Japanese after pressing other options on the screen. The Lexus dealer was able to reset the system – unfortunately not for free!

So enjoy your 100% usable IS satnav like me and have fun

Best regards from Berlin

Blaise - I just posted a request for help installing a 7.1/Gen 5 upgrade with a lockout that allows navigation inputs and use of bluetooth while driving. If you can help me with installation maybe i can help with the software to solve your problem. Let me know.

Here's something I just stumbled upon that might be a solution:

NAV Speed Pulse Generator
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Unlock-2004...sspagenameZWD4V

Personally, I'm a little reluctant to install this nav-unlocking device in my SC430. However, the seller has a 99.6% positive Ebay seller rating and lots of favorable feedback from buyers of this device.

If anyone has had any experience with this gizmo, please post.

Matt, a copy won't most likely work in the 2002 SC.

Please - wcleaver@nrai.com

Cheers

Generation 2/3 is the Generation for my 2002 SC-430
Blaise

Sent you an email. I will need to know the year and model Lexus to provide the appropriate info.

I as well have a 2002 SC430 and the traditional volume screen override command did not work for me. I found that you use the following commands.
1 Press MENU
2 Press DVD
3 Press Upper Left, Lower Left, Upper Left, Lower Left
4 Press Lower Right

Hope it helps.

I m interested in the copy of latest navigation DVD. Please email me at lavadia2003@yahoo.com

Nice maps will sure be easy on my eyes and add to the cool factor....

Thanks

I too am interested in the new dvd

Can I get a copy also?
Thanks,

I've been searching for an upgrade to my 2002 sc430's original DVD nav and have been surfing many boards - where I have learned that (A) Toyota/Lexus is a total rip off for the upgrade price and ( the COPIES usually don't work fully - - either they don't work at all and then you can't even get your original dvd to work in your car again, or the copy has no points of interest or something.
Then there are those TORENTS that people post so you can download the latest ripped version... WHAT TO DO... nobody seems stupid enough to pay the dealer prices ( unless you are stupid rich) .. so what can we all do to acquire a disk that is really going to work and not have to play russian roulette with our car's dvd system?
IF someone manages to get a working DVD -- then we all should be able to get them and report back - - and some should get a trophy for helping us all out!! I'll keep- checking but I'm not holding my breath. let me know if someone actually is successful in obtaining working copies for the Gen 2/3 nav --- quickclick@gmail.com
A friend took the DVD SCREEN out of his Lexus' dash - inserted a top quality Garmin and is actually better off - it has traffic updates and bluetooth - so the customization was well worth it.

I use a product from VAIS technolgy. works great

I'm also interested in the Ver. 7.1 GPS disc for my 2003 SC430..

Thanks for your help

UPDATE TO THIS POST!

I just got a reply from a guy on Craigslist who will sell me a v8.1 disk (copy) for a Gen 2/3 system for $25!!! Here's his email:

"$25 for the backup disc on DVD+R DL. i tested it on my 2004 gs430, i did not have chance to test on 2003 sc430 so i can not warranty it will work well. however, my friend had 2002 sc430 and it works after few eject and reinsert the disc."

Anyone have any thoughts on this offer?

Hello,I'm looking for an upgrade dvd for my 2003 SC430, Thanks, arniewong@comcast.net
