Software :)

[andy65b]

Hey guys,

I'm having a bit of issues with mine. I just had the software installed by Andy a couple of weeks ago. Starting yesterday everything started playing up. When I start the car, everything works fine, then about 5 minutes later a message comes on going "Caution do not turn ignition off, do not take disc out" and then another screen 30 seconds later "Insert Program Disc" then like 5 minutes the screen resets itself and starts working again and then another 5 minutes later I get the messages again! Any advice or has anyone else experience this?

Regards,

Hi Gyian

Sorry for this problem. I am just checking with the developer what he wants me to do but we will sort out the problem and most likely reinstall the conversion.

I will get back to you later today when I hear back from him.

Cheers

Andy

Thanks Rianto.

Nope.

Come to think of it i dont know if my compass ever worked? Perhaps i was driving in a south east direction every time i checked.

Brad I sent you a pm how to check your oem GPS signals.

Hey guys,

Problem Fixed! Turned out it wasn't the software, but something with my system. As Andy recommended, I turned the ignition on and off for like 15 times and everything is working fine! Thanks Andy!

Our language conversion only covers cars to early 2004 at the moment. We are working on later model V35's but it would be mid this year before it will be ready.

Not sure about the rest.

I found TV was a bit of a waste. if I had to go back all over again, I would probably just fit FM band expander on radio and wire the Garmin on the Japanese TV's Aux input. That is probably the only 2 things that I would use pretty much on almost daily basis. Saved me a few hundreds, but since I got it now, I will keep it.

There is a DIY thread on M35 Stagea section showing how to wire Aus TV tuner e.g. Asuka or HiTV unit into the japanese TV tuner's Aux in.

Do a search there. I don't have a direct link, sorry. The basic wiring principle would be similar to V35.

FM band expander any car audio shop can do if you don't want DIY. Otherwise there's lots of ppl who has done it themselves, ask around this forum.

I was told it was just inline connection in the aerial plus finding a +12V and ground. Doesn't need rocket science for that.

I disagree Rianto, the TV tuner is one of the best mods I did. I always listen to the news on the way home and other programs. And the kids love it in the back seats also.

[rs73]

ah, yes - you got back seat passenger to entertain... I don't :-) even if I have - probably a coupe wasn't a very ideal transport

[Cruzen]

Does anyone know what the spanner + the text PIT on your lcd means ?

Also Rianto let me know when you can get down Chaddy way as I would love you to install the jap to english software ?

[rs73]

anytime next week after work? except Monday & Tuesday - I have prior arrangements on those days.

If you want ring me tomorrow morning after 9 - phone in my signature below. will need to discuss timing.

[Cruzen]

Do you know what the spanner with the text PIT means ? It doesn't look good........

Thanks for the reply, if you end up working out the 2005 models do you install them? Secondly, how can you have both the tv and nav if theres only 1 input for aux on the system?

once again thanks

[Nightcrawler]

The Pit sign is a pre-set service interval indicator - it means you are due for a service as per how many km the previous owner set it at.

[Cruzen]

Thanks Nightcrawler I can sleep alot easier, It will be great next week when I receive the English software

when the 2005 model version available I will be doing that as well for Melbourne.

I'm sure it'll all be announced here by Andy when it becomes available.

TV & Nav - thank's to Chris Rogers' "creativity"

On my car it's even complicated because I also have aftermarket reverse camera that overtakes everything on screen as soon as I put it into reverse.

I think I better stop there before my car becomes a rolling Star Trek's USS Enterprise E.

Tempted to wire in a phaser torpedo behind the grill...

Would you do this for me ? For a price of course , I am able to source the Garmin Units through my work.

all the wiring in my car wasn't done by myself - I know the concept although I never tried to find a +12ve wire before - u should not trust me with wiring in your car.

best if u take it to an audio shop.

i'm sure chris rogers said already garmin is not diy. u could end up in tears if u get it wrong.
