Hi

Does anyone have an Australian F940BT backup they can send me as my system has died after trying to perform the "AVIC-F940BT_FW-Update_v4.600".

When I performed the update I did the following;

Began with - AVICZ110 (folder)and TESTMODE.key
System Comm Write - SD 8.05
System stated - Processed and Completed

Then

System stated - Erasing - Completed cs err

Screen stayed in "test mode" for about 1 hour then shut down by itself.

My system will not reboot and now has a black screen only with no lights to the controls aswell.

I obviously could not update Bluetooth Firmware.

I read the "Pioneer Update procedure for AVIC-F(9)(8)40BT" and watched the "Pioneer AVIC-F40BT & AVIC-F940BT iPhone 5 update for AppRadio Mode compatibility - YouTube" video prior to update.
 

This was an easy process although my F940BT did not like it.

I contacted Pioneer Australia and they told me to take my system to a Service Agent and have them perform a Software Rebuild.

Has any one else had this problem?

Any suggestions?

Thanks
 

Hello

Does anyone need a copy of the Service Manuals for the following models?

AVIC-F940BT/XNEU5, F840BT/XNEU5, F940BT/XNUW5, F940BT/XNAU, AVIC-F840BT/XNAU

This manual, and I expect others is available at:

Hope this helps.

Hi

I also have a F940BT which ws installed 5 days ago.

I tried to update to 8.05 from 8.02.

I did the same as Smurf786 - I followed the instructions and followed a video from Pioneer Australia - Published on Oct 20, 2013.

I ran the first ucom and it completed then it ran again and read "erasing" and the it read "cs err".

The screen stayed on for about 1 hour (I could not turn it off) and then turned off by itself.

I now have a black screen.

Does anyone have any updates?
