i just tried doing it on another computer and the same thing happened. it goes in and nothing happens. i hit map and it takes me to the navigation screen. i have no idea what i am doing wrong. is it the way im burning it?? how am i suppose to tell the navi to update??? does it do it by itself?

If the disk was burned correctly, when you stick in the disk if you are in AV mode I think it will say "CD Rom" or something and just sit there and not do anything. If you hit map or on the nav screen, it will bring up a screen automatically to say "do you want to perform this update? Yes or No" and if the parking brake is not on (or the parking brake sense wire is not grounded) it will have the "yes" grayed out. But it's pretty automatic. I think you can see the nav screen in a 1/4 inch outline behind the box that asks if you want to perform the update.

The most common problem I would say is that the burned disk would have the ISO file on it in data mode. You need to run Nero (or img burn, or Alcohol 120%) and don't burn a data CD and put it on there, but you want to tell it to burn the ISO file and select that file and it will create the disk with all the files on it. That's a very common problem. Many people mistake that with putting the ISO file on the disk.

If when you stick the disk in and hit map and it just sits there, then I would focus on the disk. I'm guessing there is something wrong with the burn or how you are doing it.

what does this bypass enable u to do ? i just got the z2 today and installed. i grounded the parking brake and grounded the pin 2 on the white harness.. i put the cd in with the file on it and it didnt read it . but everything seems to be working just fine.... also i have a 2008 f350 that i can not locate the vss wire.. thanks for all your help

Watch movies and do navi functions while in motion

thank you.. first try and it all worked great.. now to find that vss wire lol.. anyone know if when i do find that wire if the little white screens that say this is not avaialble right now like on the mph will just go away with out the truck moving and if its just sitting in the driveway in park ? thank you.

How many miles do have on the system so far?

My software is bypassed and I just have the parking brake switch on right now and haven't grounded pin #2...I have all functions even after hundreds of miles....I think it's just time before I get the PB error message...lol

2008superduty

if you can loook up a wiring diagram for an expidition i have a 2002 f-150 super crew my installer could not find the VSS untill he looked up a wiring diagram for an expidition found it and works just fine

I ran the second option CD, ran both bypass cables as instructed. My stock Z2 unit has been bypassed I can now access my bluetooth phone menu and dial from the screen and watch DVDS on the fly.

Problem, my unit no longer recongnises my Pioneer Rear view camera

My navigation is of-calibrated

My AV1 input which was ipod video is grayed out

Any suggestions

Go into the initial/setup unit and turn on your camera input and change the AV1 input to 'video.' Give it some time and it should calibrate

Choose the option burn image to disc under Back Up option.

Since I took out my AVI Z2 and placed the two grounding cables.. I am getting a lot of noise. Could it be that my wire gauge is low, or did i ground the cables in bad location.

What other causes of noise is there?

Thanks for the help

i checked on nero and i dont see that option, burn as image or whatever

anyone want to send me a cd that works??? any local to chicago?

Open Nero burning rom and then click on the recorder menu and then click burn image.

what version should the z2 display after the bypass is done?

I've been reading some other threads and i have a june z2 unit, these threads are saying that i still need to do the disc upgrade, is this true?

others have been saying that the june z2 units are by-passable by just performing the two wire bypass and no software upgrading needed, is this true?

Thanks in advance guys!

The software change took place sometime in June. I have seen them that require the update, and others that don't. I would just download the file, burn it, and stick it on. If it says already updated, then you are good to go. If not, five minutes later you will be

I tried the update and it says "already updated", so i guess now all i have to do is the two wire bypass and i should be good to go.

Iso file? When i downloaded from the megaupload site all i got was a rar file.i extracted the files and burned and nothing has worked...should i just burn the rar file? Or if someone could provide me with the iso file.. That would be awesome

 

The OP has linked the file, Z2BypassUpdate.iso then burn image.

Please please forgive me but I've searched and searched the forum and haven't found what I'm looking for. The file hosted on megaupload is a .rar file not an iso. I am familiar with burning iso's as images and not as data but I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do with the rar archive. Please help!! I just need to know how to burn it. Thanks in advance!!

download WinRAR or something to uncompress it first

Wrong. There are two links, you obviously picked the wrong one.
