Navigation System Help


Recommended Posts

I just got my rx330 and I love it. just small issue. Does anyone manage to get navi safe mode while driving to turn off yet? It's really frustrating when I want to look for POI while on freeway. Is there any code or key to get it unlock?

Any help would be greatly appreciate! Thanks.

It seems the only way to do this is to put a switch on the vss wire going to the nav system. So you con temp disconnect this wire while you enter info it will give you about 20 sec to enter info. Downfall nav will run off track a little. But it will let you enter info once you turn switch back on the nav will get back on track.

I THINK THAT THIS WILL ONLY WORK FOR 2005 AND UP. I HAVE AN 04 RX330 IT WILL NOT WORK FOR ME...MY BOSS JUST GOT A 2006 AND IT WILL WORK FOR HIS. IF ANYONE KNOWS HOW TO MAKE IT WORK ON A 2004 PLEASE POST.

There are two different methods to over-ride the driving safety feature dependant upon which version of the navigation you have. I currently can't remember which is which, but try both methods and one should work, if not, go into your dvd menu and tell me which nav version you have and ill see if i can figure it out.

Method 1:

Get into your sound menu

press top left

press bottom left

press top left

press bottom left

Method 2:

Navigate to your dvd information screen (where you can see which version you have)

Press top left

press bottom left

press top left

press bottom left

press bottom right

this should bring you into the service menu, press and hold the override button for a few seconds and let go, it should change in color confirming the nav override. Hit back to return to main menu. This is not a permanent override and must be done everytime you start the car. Keep in mind this will not enable phone dialing while in motion, only the navigation system.

I have just tried both, Method 1 and Method 2. Neither works for me...

I have VER.02.1

Thanks

I just took a look around the lot and we don't have any 04 RXs with navi right now for me to test. Ill update as soon as I can find a system with your version of navi

That would be great... I don't get it. I can get it to work on the 06 as I said above and have heard it works on other 04's, but it will not work on mine. Any help would be appreciated.

WHATEVER YOU DO ... DO NOT CHANGE TO ANOTHER COUNTRY! If you press Australia or China you will completely lock-up your system.

While this information is floating around the web I STRONGLY suggest NOT modifying or accessing any other features. This hidden MENU system was designed to be accessed by engineers.... not end users.

Lastly, the warranty for your navigation system will be VOID if they determine that anyone has altered this factory setting.

I just screwed up my navigation but accidentally hitting load "US-TAB" under LOAD menu.

Now the navigation appear to be inoperative and the is a message in both English and Japanese, "Insert correct disk". Any one knows how to reset it ? Please help. My bad!!

Hey Lex, I'm a extreme Noob out here, but this Nav thing is killing me...I just picked up a 07 IS250 (Which I love of course) and the Nav thing has got me bummed. I have Denso ver06.1 no ML. None of the posts out here worked for me, I have been at it for 3 days. I was able to get into the service menu by turning on the car, (not starting) holding the info button down and flashing parking lights on and off, but a las no override button, not at at all......

If you can help me out I'm sure we can work out some kind of deal ;-)

Thanks for any help!

I have a 2003 LX with Mark Levinson Audio. The override sequence listed below does not work on my system at all. Any other suggestion?

Thanks in advance!

This info came bit late for me :( I have tried to switch to european countries in secret menu ...

Now i have tried almost everything ... nothing helps to get rid of this Japanes/English message complaining about wrong disc ....

I have also disassembled whole NAV unit and tried removing bettery, because i didnt had reset switch ...

Nothing helps ... any more "bright" ideas?

BTW i cannot get to that "secret" menu anymore ... 1/2 secret service menu says that NAV is NCon ... not connected i guess...

when i phisicaly remove NAV it also dissappears from service menu, but when i put it back, it sees it but still NCON ... :(

help help help ....

WHATEVER YOU DO ... DO NOT CHANGE TO ANOTHER COUNTRY! If you press Australia or China you will completely lock-up your system.

This works great in my car! This also brings up other options on the screen. Any of these worth exploring (or best left alone!)? One of these is "load". Do I need to be at this menu to update my DVD disc to 6.1? Also, will an update disable the ability to overide (2005 RX330).

Thanks

Steve
