Hello folks... New to this forum. Darrell from Calgary.

Ive just installed a 7100-NEX and upgraded firmware to v1.05. The HU appears to functioning perfectly in every other way.

 

I'm experiencing just what @rsnek1 had experienced. FWIW....installed in an '08 RAV4. I've retained SWCs with PAC integration and also used PACs TATO for the JBL amp integration. Anyone able to offer

up an opinon?? TIA.

What does touching the screen do when the display is off?

When i touch the screen, i get a very quick flicker on the screen. The flicker is an image of the display that existed before turning off. The same thing happens if i press the mode button instead of the display.

 

This is very much the same thing that the OP describes. I'm having a coffee and will go out and reset. Will report back on the outcome.

Went out and tried the screen off feature before anything and it worked fine. I turned the screen off ( with mode button) woke it up by touching display- good- mode button to turn screen off...press mode button again, display on-good- Off again, tried touching display and I find I can't turn display on-same issue.

 

I reset and tried display off feature and can not turn display on again- same issue. So, to recap... this issue existed yesterday and after vehicle sitting all night, everything functioned fine after first boot but issue returned after 3rd cycle of turning screen off then on.

Have you done a complete hard reset/factory reset?

I haven't...that is my next course of action. Will update after that. Thanks.

I have reset my 7100 from the reset button and through 'factory reset' buried in navigation. No joy. Is there some other factory/hard reset i can try? TIA.
