Hey guys,

Got the Z-1 installed in my 996 turbo with bluetooth and sirius radio.

Had the system installed for 2 days before activating sirius. Once I did
though, the map screen froze. I can use everything on the Z-1. What should I do? hit the reset button?

You can try that. Check the gps reception in the connection status screen. Also if the gps and sirius antennas are next to each other try moving them. Sometimes I've run into situations where one interferes with the other.

yup I did the resets for everything. didnt help.

Went into the connections status screen. The GPS attenna says "NOK" not okay. also the following say NOK: speed pulse, installation position, power voltage, back signal.

man... my Z-1 was working fine until I activated the sirius set up. I do have the GPS antenna next to my Sirius antenna. Should I move it? and what else? Take out the whole system and reinstall?

Try moving the antenna, also make sure you didn't accidentally unplug or pinch the GPS antenna.

F$#K! My AVIC-Z1 maps wont work. everything else works. I moved the gps antenna away from the sirius antenna. I reset, I unplugged everything and reset again. nada.... Im gonna have to return the unit I guess.

Do you have access to another antenna?

I bought the unit from 6th ave. They are putting a call tag on it and sending me out a new unit.

I dont know what happened after I activated Sirius. I guess with the antennas being so close, it did something to the navagation and mapping. Like I said, everything else works fine.
