I had my AVIC Z1 in my 04 Explorer and then about a week ago I put in a new F150 and now when I press any bottons on the Z1 you hear a buz for as long and you press the buttons. I am taking back in this weekend but wanted to know has anyone had this a fixed it and if so how?

Thanks for any feed back...

Thats pretty funny...

I was just coming on here to ask that question too.

I have a D2 in my 2000 Pathfinder and the same thing happens. When I press a button, it makes the sound and buzzes.


Any ideas?

I think I know what it is now on my... I think they installer put the mic in the wrong slot.. I noticed this morning when I tried the BT for my phone the person on the other end could not here me and the buzz got worse... also noticed my voice menu button that allows you to do voice command in not showing up.... I will run it by there today and see and let you all know...

Hey all - Had the same buzzing sounds as well. Turns out the microphone was plugged into the wrong jack. Installed to correct jack and all is fixed, no buzz... :)

were you able to use the mic before?

i am having the buzzing, but all the while the mic works fine - with a little echo maybe. so make point is, if it were plugged into the wrong jack - the mic wouldn't work at all.

Ok folks... my system is back to normal. The mic was in the wrong hole in the back and it was causing the buzz. Also noticed my sound quality improved too...

No, the mic didn't work before because it was in the wrong jack...

Absolutely feel stupid now. Wrong hole too? If it fits, isn't it suppose to work? Thanks for the insight guys!!!
