If the disk was burned correctly, when you stick in the disk if you are in AV mode I think it will say "CD Rom" or something and just sit there and not do anything. If you hit map or on the nav screen, it will bring up a screen automatically to say "do you want to perform this update? Yes or No" and if the parking brake is not on (or the parking brake sense wire is not grounded) it will have the "yes" grayed out. But it's pretty automatic. I think you can see the nav screen in a 1/4 inch outline behind the box that asks if you want to perform the update. The most common problem I would say is that the burned disk would have the ISO file on it in data mode. You need to run Nero (or img burn, or Alcohol 120%) and don't burn a data CD and put it on there, but you want to tell it to burn the ISO file and select that file and it will create the disk with all the files on it. That's a very common problem. Many people mistake that with putting the ISO file on the disk. If when you stick the disk in and hit map and it just sits there, then I would focus on the disk. I'm guessing there is something wrong with the burn or how you are doing it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

nima77 Posted August 12, 2007 Report Share Posted August 12, 2007 I ran the second option CD, ran both bypass cables as instructed. My stock Z2 unit has been bypassed I can now access my bluetooth phone menu and dial from the screen and watch DVDS on the fly. Problem, my unit no longer recongnises my Pioneer Rear view camera My navigation is of-calibrated My AV1 input which was ipod video is grayed out Any suggestions Quote Link to post Share on other sites
whtcrxghst Posted August 12, 2007 Report Share Posted August 12, 2007 Go into the initial/setup unit and turn on your camera input and change the AV1 input to 'video.' Give it some time and it should calibrate I ran the second option CD, ran both bypass cables as instructed.
