Problem with Pioneer AVIC-X1R

[KIMVSR]

Hi,

 

I'm from Finland and I'm happy to have my Pioneer AVIC-X1R, but I have a big problem:

 

When I use my navigation system I can't use the "search adress" button. It is dark and not "touchable" )=

Of course, I'm using original navigation DVD with East Europe maps, and there is a Finland map to.

 

I can see my location on the map, but I can't enter adress to search menu.

 

I have tryed to write a new navigation DVD (CNDV-100MT), but it's not working.

The system show me "Please insert the appropriate disc".

 

My original DVD is CNDV-50MT Europe (East).

 

Could somebody tell me, what's the problem?

 

Thanks guys and sorry for my bad english (=

Ok, your problem ist either you have written the dvd with a wrong program.

For the best result burn on a dvd-r DL, i use verbatim dvd´s and they work exellent, be sure to have - dvd´s not plus.

 

What you can try is a full factory reset, it works mast times, if not than try to do a rewrite of your dvd.

 

What i also find out is that your laser unit has to be cleaned, i had the same problem with a friends avic, afther cleaning the laser it worked well.

 

a complete factory reset works like this ;

 

Remove disk

 

Hold reset and eject

Release reset but hold eject

Screen will go back in and out-then says please press the reset button ... don't

 

Then with joy pad press...

up,right,up,right,down,right,down,right…then ok (joypad button inwards)

 

Password screen will come on screen breifly

Test mode screen apears - click joystick to right once

Scroll down to number 6 - program forced write (ok)

Find number 1 system program (insert disk --cndv 40/50/60?)

Press 1 system program (ok)

Select 2 dvd/cd rom (ok)

Select language… (english)

Press (view –pos) button

Should see system program going up in %

 

When finished press (back)

Find number 6 program forced write again (ok)

Number 3 application program (ok)

Select 2 dvd/cd rom (ok)

Select 1 uk english...then press (view – pos) button

Should see system going up in %

 

When finished press (back)

Test mode page 1

Select 6 - clear back up memory (ok)

Should say finished then asks for reset button to be pressed

Press reset on front of unit
