navigation behaviour problem...

I was unable to find anything after performing a search...

 

Anyway, I have noticed some strange behaviour from the navi function recently. when my vehicle is in motion, everything appears normal, but the problem is when I am stopped. the arrow continues to show that I am moving. even with the car off (and ignition turned to acc 2, the one before turnover) the arrow continues to show movement. with the key at acc 1, it stops. a quick check of the "vehicle dynamics" screen shows that with the car completely on and in park, or acc 2, that the car is moving at 71.2 mph ( :shock: wtf??). 0 mph, otherwise. could this be a speed sensor issue?

 

my apologies if this sounds confusing. the noise in my background is distracting me!

 

thanks for any suggestions..

You hooked up your VSS? Some cars have weird VSSs that the gps doesnt understand, so you gotta reset the unit, drive it around and it will start learning your VSS

and that is assuming you have a d series avic, according to where you posted, i believe you do. If you had an n series, id say check the brain mounting and direction... but guess not.

Indeed it is a d-series (2) and the vehicle is a 97 Acura 3.0CL. i've had the avic for a good while now, and only ecently has this started. another thing to note, prior to this issue, the intersection close up, and turn by turn functions never appeared when plotting a route. only the green line illustrating the route. now the intersection close up and turn-by turn actually works. are they related? and yes, the vss is hooked up. any thoughts? by the way, i'll try the reset option. where can i find it reset button?
