actually that search tool sucks dick and this was a question that hasnt been covered.

would unhooking the motion sensor wire allow me to use nav while driving and to watch movies while driving (over 5 mph)???????????????????????????/

I just upgraded my avic n1 with the new 60 map disks and also bought and n3 brain with it. i installed it all and everything sorks perfect as if it were indeed an n3. I was wondering if there was a way to bypass the motion lockout without soldering at this point. For some reason i have no problem using nav while driving, but i can only watch movies while traveling under 5mph!! Please help?

What would happen if i substituded the N1 brain for and N3 brain but kept the software the same, leaving it at the 40MT?

its in a different thread, just search!

most likely i fried some of the little cables while doing the solder. i did the same thing. what is better to use is a conductivew pen. very easy to use!!! So i obught a unit off e bay that was broken for like 200 and just switched some of the parts and it works great now. But definetly a big loss. Although this rout is better then buying a new board whcih is very defficult and with the labor and the parts it owuld cost about 500. So its up to u!!!

yea just get on ebay that there are plenty of N2 brains on there.

Does anyone know what the differences between the brain of th n2 and the brain of the n3 are?

what parts would you need to complete this, and also i thought all you needed was the n3 brain, not eh the n3 deck?????!!!???

no its not that and i shouldnt say all the buttons, the volume and eject still worked. I was under the impression it was common and that some people on ebay could fix it, but i do have extra parts and was wondering if i could do it myself!!!

Are you sure all that i would need would just be the N3 brain?!?!?!?!?!!?

well actually like in the other posts the first button to go was the EQ. Then maybe the angle adjusters and then the ATT, and after that it was all of them, About 3 days latter the screen was blank and all i could do was touch the screen but i couldnt see what i was touching. Any more suggestions?!?!?!?!? Thanks

i thought that the N1/2/3 brains were all exactly the same!!!???

I have an Avic-N1 and was wondering if i did the upgrade to the N3 if it would then have the interface and all that kind of stuff to use with the ipod on the avic??? Also the same with the XM interface???? Thanks!!!!

I know that to fix this problem all u need to do it replace some cables and such but i was wondering oif anyone knew hich ones they were considering i have an extra unit at my house and would rather do it myself for free rather the send i tin for 120 bucks!!! Please let me know!!!

i did the same thing to mine. before tring anyything u should go to radio shack and buy desoldering braid (solder wick), and take away all of the solder and try that. If that doesnt work take a fine utility nife and make sure that the solder u have is not touching any other contact points on the board. If these fail then i don;t know what else to tell you. Mine didnt work after doing both and i just bought a new one about 2 days again off ebay so we will see how that goes. Next time instead of soldering im going to use a conductive pen which can also be found at radio shack, it is a lot easier!!!!!!! GOOD LUCK

how did you clean up the soder? Did you use solder wick or anyhting of that sort. Please help cause i don;t wanna have to buy another or send in for repair!!!!

yes, virtualy all the buttons are a different color.

you do when u make the software upgradde to get new navigation and such.

thats not true because when i had the N1 without the upgrade software the buttons were a light blue and a white and then when i installed the software the buttons were a dark blue, Very different from before. All changed because of the software upgrade!!

I thought it owuld be something on the software upgrade because going from the 40 disk to the 61 disk is when it changes. Not just when you have the N1 or N3???????

I was just wondering if there was any way to change the color of the buttons on any of the avic's. I looked through the disk and could not find any of the touchscreen button images so i couldnt change them. Please let me know if af anyone has tried it or has been successful!! Any help is greatly appreciated!!! :D

Where could i buy a new PC Board?

what would you think be the best way to go about fixing this problem? How much does a new board cost?

im sure where i soldered was correct and for all i know i don;t see there to be any reason that i droped eny solder so i really don;t know whats wrong. If i would have fried my board then wouldnt there be no power at all?
