Hello thanks for the reply, from what I was told the plug on the Z1 is different than the Z3, and this mod (wire move) is only on the Z3 ? So even though its the Z1 the mute wire can/has to be moved ?

This is a good question,the answer is trust.....I trust he did the right thing, he has told me he did the "standard Z1 bypass" Being it`s a Z1 unit with the Z3 software, he thought it may be different ? What is exactly the usual mod with this situation? Again thanks in advance

so the wires are shorted together as described here, and still it kicks out video over 30 or so mph..... Does it need to be toggled ? like the lights flashing mod ? I am stumped here , thanks in advance

For the Z2 the only bypass procedure is to Ground the Mute and Emergency parking Brake wire. I have a Z1 with Z3 Software and 2 wire mod does`nt seem to work, will this work for me ??????????? thanks

So its just the 2 wire (short) that`ll do it, even though it has the newer software ? hummmm,

I really appreciate the reply, I did reset the unit afterwards, it was installed by pro so will have to go back (again) and ask, but I helped and am 99% sure he did the short 2 wires thing... When it locked out @ 30mph he said it must have been the Z3 software and the fact that the z1 plug is different I was possibly out of luck .... Question : are the maps the same as the Z3 with the imaged drive ? Someone told me his Z3 looked different on the screen than mine ? Thanks again

Hello all and thanks for a great forum I just bought and installed the Avic Z1 with the Z3 software upgrade done. When I power it up it reads 2/2008 Anyway the standard 2 wire short does not do the over ride for me Whats next ? I love the unit and all its functions but really need the Nav to be able to be changed while driving. All help appreciated very much
