  1. ...took the car back to the dealer again, turns out it's covered by a three year warranty rather than a single year...the dealer diagnosed the problem as a car management/AVIC unit signal incompatability issue (the canbus was sending the wrong singnals to the unit to start/turn off)... ...after all the software solutions I tried (thanks to this super forums members for all their help) it turns out that the problem wasn't with the Pioneer unit after all (shame on me for doubting the mighty Pioneer)... ...well (fingers crossed), after a week of use, the unit continues to be fully operati
  2. ..hey there bitman...thanks for replying... ...not memory issue...tried that earlier...however...turned out the unit is still covered by warranty...and also turns out that it isn't an issue with the unit per se after all...took it back to the dealer and it seems as if there is a known problem with certain car electronic management systems sending signals to the unit telling it when to turn on and off (or rather not sending)...not Pioneer software, hardware, memory, installation, handbrake byepass, reverse camera, WinCE update, GPS temorary file issue, etc... ...since it's covered by wa
  3. ...well, finally plucked up the courage to try this...and it worked (thanks and total respect to the OP)...but only for a day!!!...did everything as noted, and for a day I had super fast tough screen control, the latest maps, no booting problems, etc...but when I turned the ignition this morning - nothing...I'm now at the point that I'm convinced this unit is never goinna work (has anyone ever had a F900BT that has worked as intended without any problems?)... ...I've now tried every solution to get this re-booting issue fixed, and I'm out of patience... ...right now I feel like strippi
  4. hello gumbey75!!!...thanks for replying... there is no consistency in the fault...sometimes the unit will start up at ignition, run for a few miniutes of driving, and then cut out (then either re-boot continually, or stay off)...alternatively, it doesn't start at ignition, but comes on after say 10 minutes of driving (then either re-boot, or will stay on for the rest of the journey)...when on, everything works fine... ..when the problems first began the unit wouldn't start at ignition (this only happened every few months or so to begin with and was solved by removing the fuse and then
  5. Hello oh mighty brained ones...question from a long suffering F900BT owner ( 2 years of misery now )... ...before we go any further I've tried tried the following to fix problem - upgraded from Version 1 to Version 2.009, and deleted the four gpspara files...all to no avail...also checked the handbrake cables...and there are no mods on the system... ...a lot of the links on the forums are dead now, which is not surprising given the time that's passed, so I'm limited on how to fix this infernal piece of **** (which has never worked properly since I bought it factory fitted in a Vauxhall
  6. ...great forum...first post... I also have an F900BT...and it's rebooting...have tried various different solutions to fix this problem...but all ultimately fail... ...this looks like a great thread, and special thanks to the OP for taking the time to help others - I've downloaded and extracted all the files to SD cards...question though - before I try this, does anyone know if this will work if you have Version 2.0090000 currently installed?...the reason I'm asking is that the Pioneer web site suggests that if you upgrade to Version 3 (which this seems to do) without first having CNSD-
