Hello,

While playing around on the weekend i found the self diagnositc mode for the Navigation system.

In this mode you can test all components connected to the DVD rom navigation unit, eg tv tuner, gps antenna, etc.

I also found these extra screens.

By pressing the MAP and DISPLAY buttons together for 5 secs you get into the diagnostic mode.

The first screen has 2 options, the top option is self test, the second one has this screen

If you hold the MAP and DISPLAY buttons down for another 5 seconds on this screen you get this one

You notice you get the additional function of SRAM (i think this resets the whole system)

If you take the 3rd option down it has 3 functions -

1st option is gyro angle adjustment

2nd option is speed calibration

3rd option is this screen showing all gps data

I have tried to work out what each set of figures mean?

Can anyone else work out what the different menu options say?

Cheers

Pete

i forgot to ask a fellow stagea owner on the weekend. if i see him thursday night ill ask to borrow it and ill attempt to copy it. ill make an image of it available assuming it works. maybe a torrent or something.......

disc is a DVD and yes it can be copied.

one item you missed there was the greyed out langauage button.

these screens were covered about a year ago and the translations of the sub menus.

Regarding the 1st option.... I wonder if that would solve the 'inaccurate' Compass direction?

Have you tried if you can make some custom adjustments in any of those options/screen?

The best way is probably install a Japanese IME on your laptop, bring it over to your car with a local WIFI to your home ADSL, and you can translate most of the screen easily using google translators...

have a chat to andy - his username I dunno but he organise the work on russian translation thing... I think it's andy56b or something like that...

have a browse on this forum you'll easily see his name come up around

I played around, didn't get anywhere... almost killed my battery since took me some time with laptop and google translator with Japanese IME character recognition pad open, lots of copy paste...

Going into navigation directional setting there is one setting where you adjust the % (accuracy?) with left and right turn, I am not sure what it is...

probably trying to compensate for delay in the GPS signal and tuning the timing between a turning timing etc? well what the heck...

it's a finicky to work with and cbf anymore...

    • Update: I got the magnet out. I bought 3 different flexible magnetic reach tools, but none of them worked. The magnet on the tip was all less than 2lbs of force, so i had to buy a special cylindrical magnet that had a pull force of 9lbs.  The magnet finally came in the mail yesterday, so i got under the car to get to work. The super strong magnet isn't that long, so i only have about 1 finger pinch lengths to hold it. I was so scared when i was going in the hole, that the 9lb magnet would just fly away inside the oil pan never to be seen again, but i had my butt cheeks clenched and finger gripped on that thing so tight, i managed to get it to suck the other magnet out.  It was a victory for me last night.         
    • Yep, pretty much what you said is a good summary. The aftermarket thing just attached to the rim, then has two lines out to valve stems, one to inner wheel, one to outer wheel. Some of the systems even start to air up as you head towards highway speed. IE, you're in the logging tracks, then as speeds increase it knows you're on tarmac and airs up so the driver doesn't even have to remember. I bet the ones that need driver intervention to air up end up seeing a lot more tyre wear from "forest pressures" in use on the highway!
    • Yes, but you need to do these type certifications for tuning parts. That is the absurd part here. Meaning tuning parts are very costly (generally speaking) as well as the technical test documentation for say a turbo swap with more power. It just makes modifying everything crazy expensive and complicated. That bracket has been lost in translation many years ago I assume, it was not there.
    • Hahaha, yeah.... not what you'd call a tamper-proof design.... but yes, with the truck setup, the lines are always connected, but typically they sit just inside the plane of the rear metal mudguards, so if you clear the guards you clear the lines as well. Not rogue 4WD tracks with tree branches and bushes everywhere, ready to hook-up an air hose. You can do it externally like a mod, but dedicated setups air-pressurize the undriven hubs, and on driven axles you can do the same thing, or pressurize the axles (lots of designs out there for this idea)... https://www.trtaustralia.com.au/traction-air-cti-system/  for example.... ..the trouble I've got here... wrt the bimmer ad... is the last bit...they don't want to show it spinning, do they.... give all the illusion that things are moving...but no...and what the hell tyre profile is that?...25??? ...far kernel, rims would be dead inside 10klms on most roads around here.... 😃
    • You're just describing how type certification works. Personally I would be shocked to discover that catalytic converter is not in the stock mounting position. Is there a bracket on the transfer case holding the catalytic converter and front pipe together? If so, it should be in stock position.
