gqong Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone knows a possibility or if there is a dumb option to change the navigation voice and beeping noise when changing options to come on? I added a new amp and new front components the music sounds great but I no longer hear the beeping or the voice for the navigation. I searched and read through the instructions and I could not find an answer. Please let me know if there is a setting because I added a new amp and speakers which altered because I was on the factory amp/speakers and everything was working fine. PS: On a side note all of a sudden the yellow battery wire from the car stopped working out of no where. I don't know how this happened I checked for power on the line and there was none, I assume having to do with the new amp....I had to run another line from the distribution block of battery power back to the avic-z1. :cry: thanks for any help Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bongus Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 When you disconnect the power to the Z1 everything reverts to default settings. This includes your volume settings. You can adjust volume in the settings tab. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gqong Posted October 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 Yes I am aware of that I put all of the bars to full and still could not hear anything Quote Link to post Share on other sites
silveradojeff Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 ok you say you installed a new amp and front speakers. If you are using the rca pre-amp outputs you will have a slight problem. When you use the rcas, you need to use the ad on guidance speaker. I read that somewhere, I dont know this first hand but it makes sence to me. Someone was having troubles after installing something else and that was the answer. but if your not using the pre outs and your still using the regular speaker wires.. ignore everything i have said! lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cntrylvr79 Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Strange my last attempt to post disappeared. Have you checked to make sure the unit is set to output the voice guidance through the speakers. I think it's in system menu. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gqong Posted October 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 well yes i am using the rca outputs..that could be the answer... ^^ last post..i do not know where that setting is. i checked every menu to no avail Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gqong Posted October 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 I really hope I do not need to make another purchase just to make it work. :cry: If someone has a definite answer please respond. Thank you all for your inputs thus far. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
silveradojeff Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Ok i couldnt find the exact thing i was looking for but i found this on pioneers website NOTE: When using the DEQ-P8000 with the AVIC-Z1 you will loose the Voice Guidance. You will need to order and install the CD-TS37GP Voice Guidance Speaker. I remember reading somewhere else that this is because the rca's were used. This kinda makes sence but not too much. The voice we hear is generated and amplified inside the unit. the rca are pre power so they dont get a boost .. i dunno now im rambling.. i need coffee... but the voice guidance speaker isnt that much $$, Hell it may even fix some of the bluetooth issues with echo.

gqong Posted October 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 hmm thanks for the answer...sounds logical. that really sucks that this happens if you use the rca's if that is why. i set the nav to Mute All and once it started directions it mute my music, no nav commands came out, AND my music would not come back. BAH!..im wondering if i should just cut the RCA ends and hook them up by wires. what a pain. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gqong Posted October 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 fixed it!...damnit i just had the wrong rca's plugged to the rear. i ran 2 rca's one for rear and one for front i disconnected and reconnected the wrong sides. lol. thanks for the input guys!
