jwq Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 Make sure you reset all the calibration settings... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaMiL004 Posted April 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 Thank you for your reply But how can that be done? Is it somewhere on the menu? I unplugged the radio and also the gps antena started it back up and hit that reset button up front and that didnt work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jwq Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 see the manual, page 98 and onwards http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/pio/pe/images/portal/cit_11221/420272362AVICZ2OperationManual0228.pdf you can also try a complete reset, but that clears all music etc. from the harddisk (page 180 etc. ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaMiL004 Posted April 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 The calibration settings getting cleared worked thank you guys for all your input!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaMiL004 Posted April 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Ok I went to use my car today and after doing the 3d calibration now it will not let me delete tracks while iam in motion but it states that the hand brake is on. So I was reading around on the forums and said to do a reset before moving. I did that and then i can delete tracks again but the gps goes wacko again. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you Quote Link to post Share on other sites
garrettoomey Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Check you gps antenna strength in the settings menu. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaMiL004 Posted April 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 I checked that once I do the 3d reset if has 3-4 bars (and originally it was installed professionally on my other veh. they left it right on top of the radio inside the dash) after the little button reset it does not show any. And on the bottom of that 3d reset is it suppose to keep saying system initializing or something of that sort or sensor initializing all the time? Should i move the antenna outside of the veh. like on the roof? I was just afraid its not weather proof. Thanks for all your help your help!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
garrettoomey Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Try moving the antenna on top of the dash to see if it makes a difference. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jwq Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Also take care that the GPS antenna is mounted horizontally, top side up, and preferably on a metal base. Also make sure there's no metal between the top of the antenna and the sky, otherwise it won't receive any satelites. Plastic is no problem. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaMiL004 Posted April 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Ok I will try that this weekend. More then likely I will run the wire up the adverse a-pillar where I run my satt. radio and mount it to the roof. Thanks again for all your help. Hopefully this works.
