Hi everybody,

 

this is my last chance

 

Well my history start when i bought an AVIC-F900BT device, i put my device on storage for a many reasons for two years, well, i lets go to car workshop and i try to mount it, but tell me that i need some parts.

 

This car workshop start the unit for verify and configure without any idea.

 

Well now i need to update the unit but in settings appear disabled 2 of 4 options, i can only change sound av and config av.

 

i think that my unit is not updated to 100 or 200 firmware.

 

download the firmware from pioneer, insert into sd and unit doesn't boot.

 

if i press the reset button for 5 or 10 seconds, the unit starts correctly, and the other options from the factory restore settings is disabled the menu.

 

Can anybody help me???

 

Thanks in advance

just connect the parking brake cable to the ground of your radio..

 

the cnsd-300 fm doesnt help you because it must be activated online with a special code on the pioneer website.

 

first make a complete backup

 

then you can play with different versions avaliable like fx 3.1 oder the hybrid version 4 and add newer maps
