Avic-D1 GPS navigation - touch screen calibration

[PawelP]

Please help.

 

My AVIC-D1 touch screen seems to dis-calibrate itself and now there is

very poor pointing accuracy. The center of the screen reacts properly,

but the sides of the screen is off towards the edges. I need to touch

the area outside the point I want to activate. The points close to the

edge are not accessible.

 

This failure appeared few month after the warranty went out.

 

Please advise what can I do with this unit. Maybe someone can provide with the calibration routine I can run on my AVIC-D1 to calibrate the

screen.

 

Thanks in advance

Thanks so much.

I will try it today. Hope it helps.

 

This forum is great, I have had my D1 for two years now and have no idea about the service menu and other improvements.

Is there any descrption about the service menu somewhere?

 

thanks

I did that, it worked for the first time!

 

thank you so much.

 

I have been trying to contact Pioneer for half a year now about that issue and it took exactly 5mins. to fix it with the self-calibration.

 

I read Pioneer will charge $200 for that plus all the hassle with removing of the unit from the dash etc.

 

They should give this routine in the user manual.

 

Anyways, thanks a lot for this wonderful help, it is great!

 

Just to reapeat what was already written in the link kindly given to me:

"

- hit eject & reset at the same time

- release 'reset'

- screen went in & came back out

- screen said "press reset" or something to that effect

- i used the joystick - up, up, down, down, [and then pushed in the joystick to 'enter']

- goes into the service menu - select top option for touch screen

- in touch screen menu, select 1st [top] item with * next to it

- using your fingernail, trace the edges of the screen, and the X,Y values will change to reflect the tracing (I did this a few times to make sure it read my finger well)

- hit the "BAND" button [acts as 'back']

- select the second option down

- select the cross on the screen each time it appears - it will do a column on the right, middle, left, then one final offset just right of the left column - then it should say 'ok' or something like that

- I then selected a menu option (sorry I don't specifically remember the title) with 'Confirm calibration' or something like that in the title - apparently this saved the new settings

- I then removed the faceplate to shut down the unit and put it back on - it went through a few startup sequences and then, after resetting some basics, the unit worked fine (I did it another time where I turned off the engine instread of removing the faceplate)

thank you so much.

 

I tried it for an hour today, and I can not for the life of me get into the Service Menu. I open the screen on my D1, the press Reset and Eject at the same time, then let go of the reset buttion while still holding eject? What am I doing wrong. It does nothing. Resets, stays blank until I get of of eject. Help!!! My calbriation is off, and its driving me nuts!
