New member here, This is my 3rd AVIC unit i have owned and so far i have loved them all. I just recently bought a avic-F700BT installed her today with everything pretty much (subwoofer RCA, both front and back RCA speakers, wired mic, GPS antenna and USB cable).

The unit works, but there are a few things that don't work at all.

-I can access the settings menu however only two setting icons illuminate the other two are GREY (navi settings and system settings).

- Bluetooth phone, everything is grey even the setup option.

- Navi, i can only choose POI and "go home" everything else is in grey.

Does anyone know what this problem could be caused by? I have no way of checking what firmware the unit has because i can't even access the "system settings".

you have to do the parking break bypass

if you did the hardware bypass, check your splicing for the grounds. The same greyed out icons kept appearing for me even when I had everything set up correctly for the bypass. I undid all my taps for grounding out and turns out they didnt make a clean connection. I ended up splicing them together, old school style and everything worked perfectly.
