Prius (Gen 2) :: 2006 - Navigation Stuck At System Loading Loop

I currently have a 2006 Prius with the built in navigation. Today when I start up the car, the map display is in a repeated loop of "System Loading.... Don't turn power off".

It has been working since I got the car, and I have done a map update a couple years back but it has been working until now. Everything else in the display appears to work (Engine screen, Weather, Audio, etc).

Lexus IS 2014+ :: How To Turn Off Freeway Exit Information On Nav

Is it possible to turn off the freeway exit info on the nav? This is the info that shows up when you are in a long stretch and it shows POIs in between your current location and the exit that you will take. I do not like that it takes up half of the screen to display info I do not need.

2014 Avalon Limited - Freeway Exit List Does Not Show Major Interstate Highway Exits

When driving on a freeway, the navigation system splits the screen to show a list of upcoming freeway exits. For some reason, the list does not show major interstate highway exits, e.g I95, I495. So, for example, if the exit for I95 is exit 5, the list goes from exit 4 right to exit 6 without listing exit 5.

I have read every page of the owners manual several time looking for a setting that may correct this, and have searched Toyota Nation archives looking for a solution, but I can't find anything.

This is for a 2014 Avalon Limited.

Phaeton :: 2004 - Digital Sound System Failed / Navigation System Unavailable Error Message

I have a 2004 VW Phaeton.

Today, the sound system failed, then shortly after, the navigation system failed.

On the console, if I press any map/navigation buttons, the error message "Navigation System Unavailable" is displayed.

If I press an audio related button, the error message "DSP system is unavailable". I took it to a private vw repair shop and a vw dealer. What was causing the issue.

I am now headed to a vw dealer with certified phaeton tech. I looked towards fuse issue, but they appear to be ok..

Prius (2004-09) :: 2006 - Master Warning Light Came On / Car Died On Freeway

My master warnIng lIght came on In my car.I took my car into Hooman Toyota in Long Beach, California. They did a diagnostic test and performed their MPI WORLD CLASS INSPECTION. While I was getting it tested they said the invert water pump was under recall. No biggie. Nothing was found in the diagnostic and the recall was fixed.

Two days later I took my car to Palms Springs. While I was driving out there the master warning light came on. I started to lose power but it seemed like the computer would reset and it would be ok for about 15 minutes. I even lost power in the engine. I finally made it out there and figured it just needed to rest. 6 hours later I took off for home. 10 minutes into it the lights on the dashboard came on. The car lost all power and I was stranded off the freeway. My battery was down to 1 bar. I left it there overnight and had it towed to the nearest Toyota dealer. They said I need a new battery and that theirs bad gas. They wanted to replace the fuel tank. I replaced the battery.

The next day they said that wasn't it and was going to continue searching. I ended up towing it to my mechanic. He said there was no coolant and the headers are blown. He said I was better off getting a new engine. Let me take you back two days when that WORLD CLASS MPI INSPECTION was done. There was an 8 page report specifying what was passed on the inspection. The battery, coolant levels along with other fluids passed. Not to mention hoses and clamps and about 30 other things. I feel something was missed in that WORLD CLASS INSPECTION. I feel they are responsible for the car ending up the way it was.

Elantra HD (2006-10) :: Navigation System Screen Freezing

Every so often my entire Navigation system becomes unusable. The screen freezes, and audio shuts off. The screen can be turned off, but the only way to get it back working again is to turn car off for about 2 minutes and then it goes back to normal.

I can't tell if it's from overheating or not?

The car is a 2010 w/ under 3,000 miles on it. I am debating waiting until my first service and have them just look at it then. (I have full extended warranty - I am on the road a lot so I always buy them).

Prius (Gen 2) :: Navigation Going Out - External System Not Connected

My sister says that her navigation has been going out. She brought the car to the dealership and they said her entire nav system needs to be replaced. They can give her a refurbished unit for $800 + labor. The symptoms are as follows:

The screen will turn black but she can still hear the voices. The screen will come back on its own. She also gets an error message "external system not connected". She says that this could happen at any time, not just when the navigation system is being used. Also when this does happen it is as if the whole system crashes because she cannot control the AC heat and the radio goes out.

In my research i would say this was a nav ECU problem but I want to double check and so I am posting. I would like to know if the ECU from other model years can be used (assuming you carry over the same DVD version).

Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: Navigation System Won't Shut Off

My 2012 PIP has the GPS nav system and if I want to shut it off before my destination I can't find out how to do it! I can't find anything on it in my Owners Manual either. I do not see a "Del. Destination" to press and I do not have a "Stop Guidance" to press either.

Prius (2010-12) :: Navigation System Completely Lost

I have a 2010 prius with the navigation package in the last month the compass goes berserk and the the navigation gets completely lost. I have done the recalibration and it may work for an hour or a day then just start wondering.

The xm radio works fine and when I get into the system check page by pressing info while turning the light switch from off to side lights four times all the systems say they are OK and the gyro voltage and direction looks good. This problem is with the original map cd and the versionb11.1 cd.

Prius (2010-12) :: Strange Noise From CD / Navigation System

I have the IV, with navigation. My most recent sound is from the cd player. If you open up the navigation (like your going to load a cd) it's even louder. It sounds like like a computer hard drive searching and writing data, and goes on for about 10 minutes (or longer, my patience doesn't last too long). Maybe the navigation system is uploading a database or something. No CD's vs. loading a cd do not make a difference, and the audio system is off. Weird. Only way to hear it is on a quiet night, in EV mode. Reminds me of when I used to reformat a hard drive on my old computer. I'll continue to listen for it when I pull up to a stoplight.

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Not Getting Navigation System Audible Turn Notifications

I just realized that I should be hearing the nav system giving me audible turn notifications. And I haven't been getting them. I have a destination entered, and am in the middle of being guided.

Having the audio system on/off makes no difference
I have the voice guides turned on (via Menu screen)
I have the voice volume set at 7 (via Menu screen)
Turning the speed-adaptive volume on/off makes no difference (via Menu screen)
I am on what seems to be the original DVD disc (v3.0?) that came with the car
I have what appears to be a dealer/aftermarket installed rear entertainment system (not OEM)

So:Does the nav system audio have it's own speaker and dedicated channel in the ML amplifier? Or perhaps it's own amplifier

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: GX470 ECU Navigation System - Screen Just Flickers

I was recently in a rear-end crash. The body-shop presumably disconnected the battery, fixed the rear door, and then re-connected the battery.

Now, however, the Navigation screen just flickers.
If I press Info, Audio, or Climate, the screen is just fine
If I press Menu, Dest or Display it flickers.
(Curiously, if I press Info, Audio, or Climate AND THEN press Display, the DISPLAY is fine)

Took it to the dealer, who said it was a coincidental to the body-shop repair.

Prius 2016 (Gen 4) :: System Returns To Home Screen During Navigation

I find the home screen to be a great idea and I generally love it. Today, while using the navigation system, the system kept returning me to the home screen after a few minutes of not interacting with it. I'm fine with it doing this on the audio or weather apps, but when I'm actively navigating I'd rather it would stay on the nav screen until I hit the home button. I skimmed the settings and the manual but did not see this addressed anywhere. Is there a setting I am missing someplace?

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: 2003 GX470 Navigation System - GPS Signal Lost

I bought a 2003 GX470 a couple of months ago and love it. It was a good upgrade from the 98 Land Cruiser I had a couple of years back and much better than my recent X5. Even though it runs great right now, I have one issue bugging me.

The Navigation unit hasn't ever really worked. Actually, it works, but since I bought it has used the secondary system which calculates location based off direction and speed which is only accurate if driving 50 yards or less - even after calibration

I found out how to get into the secret menu and looked through the settings. When I go to the screen which shows connected satellites, it says "Ensure nothing is blocking gps reception." I've tried a couple of resets, but nothing seems to work. I looked up where the antenna is to see if the connections is loose, but the only reference I found said it was on the rear glass. Unless integrated into something, I don't think it is, though.

The system still runs a factory 2003 disc for maps which is Gen 3. I tried a used 2007 map disc which upgraded the system, but didn't work. It gave disc errors so had to go back to the 2003 one. I haven't had a GPS signal since the day I bought it.
