All,

 

I just bought a D1, and installed everything except for the VSS and back-up light. I grounded the parking brake wire. I was told that it would work with this configuration. I try looking for the VSS wire behind the glove box. (Green with an orange). Wasn't able to locate it. When I power the unit, and inserted the west disc. It stuck in LA. Certain links like address search is disabled.

 

Please help

stuck in LA could be bad antenna connection or in demo mode. if your unit has upgraded d2 software then grounding the parking brake may not be the bypass

I confirmed that the Demo mode is turned off. The antenna has a strong signal according to the hardware screen. How can I determine if it has D2 software? If so do I have to just install the parking brake?

no if it is d2, you have to repin the mute wire like the z1

Have you taken the car for a quick drive yet? I just installed mine and it also started in LA.. As soon as I was moving it was happy and no longer in LA...LOL

Yep, took it on drive and it stuck in LA and won't move. The signal meter is pegged at 7 sat.

All,

 

I've hook-up the VSS, reverse light and the parking brake according to the factory manual. On the system info. I've confirm the VSS signal and the is moving the sat signal is strong. The parking brake on-off fuction. and the reverse signal (High and low). The arrow still is stuck on one location. I was able to modify current location on the screen, but the navigation never moves. I've confirmed that the demo mode works.

 

Please help.

Have you checked the gps signal strength.

Gps signal is OK 7 sat

The D2 have a reset button below the SRC button on the left side. Pushing that with a pin or something will reset the unit. not sure if there is a reset on D1...

I've sent the unit back for repair
