Moved to N-Series forum

Ah, I just noticed this is the D-Series forums, my mistake, I will move my suggestion to the N-Series forum.

I have this same problem. My avic-d3 work once a week when I start car morning. When i turn off engine and turn key to on it not work again. When i leave car in work like 6-8hr and sttark car it work (only radio and ipod, not navi).

I readed all post and i see nobody have answere hot to fix it...

Someone used a remote control to fix it but what kind ? CDR55 or CDR510 ??? It work ??? Should i buy remote ???

I found on us ebay someone fixing it:

Any body know how to fix it cheaper ?

to @ll : did you try guys check every cables in harmess GPS antenna (disconnect and reconnect)

I think maybe it's a some circuit

Did you try everybody insert a second disc map

GPS antena some time show us a wrong location (cold antena or its hide under desk or diper; low siggnal).

Then head unit think we are in different location and it wnat second disc (if you use a east disc it want west disc).

I THINK THIS IS A "APPROPIRATE" PROBLEM

I started getting this error AFTER i did the update before that i had no problems with my nav and now it will not calculate routes for me randomly reboots. Its annoying as hell

I just tried the language change and inserted the original disc and it worked I am now back to normal and so far everything appears to be working fine!

i bought the remote and tried the fix, but when i get to the dvd option and press 7 for navi, it does nothing.

i have tried to change the language, but then i cannot get the non-navi screens to come on.

any suggestions?

has anyone tried the ebay guy for $120? was he able to fix the problem?

thanks in advance.

Please try this: bring your disc to a GameCrazy or any used games dealer and have it re-surfaced(cost $1.00 to $3.00), then try those above step. Let me know how it work out for you. I can fix it if that wouldn't worked. Good luck.

well after owning my d3 for over 2 years i came out to the car to head to work this morning and now have it; i've not done any upgrades; havent messed with it and havent even inserted a new cd in about 2-3 weeks. would be nice to find a fix because i'm not going to pay 200 to send it in when i can go get a brand new headunit for 350 on sonicelectronix.com where i originally boughtmy d3. any help at all????

i was wondering if i should buy one that has this problem if i can get it cheap and maybe fix it some how? how much would you pay for one with this problem and is it an easy fix? thanks

If you are handy with tiny electronic parts then open it up and clean the laser lense with a Q-tip and lense cleaner solution. But first I would have the disc re-surfaced, because with a new lense some light scratches at the right place on the disc would bring the same message. Good luck.

Hey guys I had this same problem but it was not sudden. At first for a couple of months I couldn't type in addresses and crap. And then the Insert appropriate disc problem started. I just downloaded the Latest images CD-MV90T I think and it workes like a charm again . Good luck to all of you.

I think Im having these same issues. Nav. doesnt track right anyone, only sometimes does it work and now im getting a screen saying the ebrake isnt hooked up right(have the bypass done) CRAP on the deck just dieing!

you realize this post is over a year old, right?

ur point is?

do the language switch and use original navi discs. burned ones ruin the lens. buy originals & CDR55 remote if u plan on keepin her 4 a while. got mine back like dat.

I've just started experiencing this problem since several weeks. The navigation unit just blanks out and restarts suddenly or when it it does work it sometimes misses roads (everything turns into water). The unit also needs several minutes to boot and most of the time the message 'insert appropriate disc' appears. I've bought the newest versions of the discs (CNDV-110MT, 2012 DVD maps) but this didn't fix the problem (I tried switching the language; it works to get the unit working but as soon as the unit restarts it asks for the appropriate discs again). So unfortunately the fixes described above didn't work for me. Too bad, but now I've bought the F940BT .

sAnexeh, any way you could upload maps?

Sorry, no. I already sent the discs back and have the F940BT now.
