  1. PM'ed you, Mr. PaisanNYC *o^0*
  2. sounds easy enough - I will wait until after my december trip to pull it - thanks for your help cntrylvr79!
  3. it's a 2004 Expedition - I've never done ANY car stereo work I have looked through the N2 service manual PDF and saw on the Keyboard PCB diagram (pg 72/73), the 'wide', 'angle+', and 'angle-' switches are all grouped together on one circuit (I guess they're circuits!) which happens to connect to switches 2 & 4 from the 'select' item (joystick). Since they're all bunched & together, my logic tells me there is probably a problem right there. That's all the detective work I've been able to do today online. I haven't taken the keyboard (faceplate) apart to see how everything connects, but the
  4. I have looked around all day online for possible fixes on my +/- issue - I was hoping there would be a magic button sequence to reset the hardware, but nothing yet - I found an AVIC-N2 service manual and it's extremely technical, so it doesn't offer any pinpoint help for my latest symptoms - if I would have saved the calibration settings correctly the first time in, the +/- buttons would not have failed (I believe) - I also noticed the 'WIDE' button now does not work for the aspect ratio of the AV video - those 3 buttons are the only thing failing on my system right now - I had this unit insta
  5. I fixed this issue, but now I have another - I posted over here: http://avic411.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=17778#17778
  6. I had the same problem but figured out how to fix it with a side effect - the +/- buttons on the unit do not work so the screen in slammed back against my dash when open - I got into the secret service menu on my N1: - hit eject & reset at the same time - release 'reset' - screen went in & came back out - screen said "press reset" or something to that effect - i used the joystick - up, up, down, down, [and then pushed in the joystick to 'enter'] - goes into the service menu - select top option for touch screen - in touch screen menu, select 1st [top] item with * next to it -
  7. I posted in this Z1 hack/mod forum to try to get help from people who wouldn't see my post in the N1 forum - for example, I am a member of the benzworld.org forum, but I only look in the SLK section, so I wouldn't see a similar question in the SL section - all I need is a simple answer from people who have obviously been in the menu and saved their settings! If I can learn how it worked on a Z1, I might be able to figure it out on an N1 - thanks for your help!
  8. what steps does the service menu list when an adjustment has been made??? interesting that it wouldn't be a prominent item in the manual! I hope someone else has some experience with this.
  9. I got into this on my AVIC-N1 and made some changes, but i need to save & exit - I couldn't figure out how to do that - anyone successfully made changes & exited the service menu? I know it will be slightly different on my unit, but at least I will have something to look for if I have an example - thanks
  10. I was able to access the hidden service menu on my AVIC-N1 from instructions in this forum (thanks to all you hacker-types!) - I needed to get in there to adjust the touch screen - Pioneer had said it would be $200 to fix after I have it pulled by an installer which would only add $$ to the repair - I found how to recalibrate the screen in the secret menu (it was tracking a half inch to the left on all screens - I couldn't scroll in address book or POI menus!!) - apparently the "BAND" button on the face is the 'back' button - my problem is I couldn't save my settings & exit - I ended up hi
