Hi,

I have just purchased a second hand Avic F500BT from here in the UK, the unit is a European model. I have the unit connected to my car via the cigarette lighter power lead, and it is attached to the cradle, then to the windshield. I have no other cables or aerials attached.

Everything except the TMC works.. when I go into the Destination Menu and click Traffic, settings, it shows (0.0 MHz) and the following items are greyed out:

Exclude selected station

Show excluded station

Any idea's as to what I can try to fix this?

I have read about a SYS. file or folder that might not be set to EU, but I am not sure how to view this file / folder and or change it, if that is the problem.

Any help would be great,

Thanks,

Connect the power supply to the cradle and not to the F500BT. The TMC receiver is build in to the cradle and doesn't work when there is no power supplied to the cradle.
