Pioneer Avic-80 DVD Problem

[nymiezer]

Hi, My Avic-80 has developed a weird problem. When I try to set an\ route through the "Adress Search" option, it will come up with the error "Destination does not exist, do you wish to continue? for every adress I enter. The unit can still route through the phone book and my adress contacts, but no through a new adress search? Is there a way to fix this?

Have you tried changing the region number your in? Might have gotten cchanged somehow. THat or try resetting the unit.

I have tried both those methods with no success already. What is weird is it can find intersections, just not a fixed address. The locations I have saved in my address book produce routes with no problems, but if I try to type one of those locations in address search, I get the error message does not exist. I can no longer map out new locations through this method and am at a stand still at this point.

I just did a test. I picked an address in another region, and it worked fine. What would cause my gps to make this error in my current region? Could this disk be damaged?

[cntrylvr79]

It's entirely possible take a look at the bottom of the disc.

Also, hold the disc up to the light, and lookfor pinholes in the reflective media.

It was the disk. I created an ISO image of the original disk and then burned the image to a Dual Layer DVD-R. Eveyrthing works perfect again.
Thanks again.
