Hi, i was just wondering if any of you guys know wether we can get rid of the security thing that makes you stop the car in order to use the navigation system?

bcus thats really buggin me

 

What's the problem? I use mine all the time while driving.

 

can u use it while driving?
cus over here in canada they say that u cant use it while driving

 

i heard something like pull handbreak till just ONE click and it should work.
handbreak doesnt engage with only few clicks but the NAV system "thinks" that the car is in stop position.
i cant remember if this was only for aftermarket stuff or if it works with nissan nav system.
try it

 

Atually it has a mph sensor. I believe you can't input info into the nav if you are going anything faster than 5 mph. Do a quick search on this topic. I know i recently read about some1 who just snipped and grounded one of the wires on the nav to override this.

 

i started a thread about this...apparently there is no fix-it....i cant even go 2mph and use it...im gonna try the handbrake idea..sounds ok

 

soo that means u need ur handbrake on in order to use it while driving? wouldnt that mess up ur car

 

A simply way to fix it would be to wire your own power and remote turn on to the monitor. Might take some work to hash out the wiring harness for the correct wires. Any reputable car audio shop would probably be able to do this for you.

 

There is an input to the NAV unit from the car that indicates the vehicle speed. You interupt this circuit and wire in a toggle switch. No input = 0 mph. Check out this thread

I'll have it done on my car when it comes. It's due in 22 more days.
