08 Spec B Nav Issues

[MaasaiWarrior]

Hey everyone

 

I'm wondering if anyone else has had this issue.

 

I had to change out my nav screen for a new to me one because of the lcd dying and I popped the new one in and it's working perfectly.

All the car functions work well and I can go through everything except the nav stuff.

The buttons switch the monitor over to the nav but nothing loads. I just get a black screen. Is there any re-programming I have to do?

 

I've tried ejecting the Nav DVD which I believe is the original one but it will not do it. I've pressed the tiny reset beside the eject button but that didn't do a thing.

I've unplugged the DVD unit and plugged it all back in again with the same results.

 

Is there anything I'm missing or should I try a new DVD drive?

Well I decided to pull out the drive and take a good look... she's done. I pulled the cover off and tried it to see if the disc was spinning at all. No go... so I decided to look deeper, after a long fight I was able to get the OE nav disc out with no issues.

She's a little crusty though!!

Yeah, that one is not gonna work right...
