Hey guys

Just got myself a 2005 350gt sedan, car is amazing but am having a few intermittent issues with the NAV screen at the moment

This only happens sometimes but the problem is this, when the nav screen pops up it will pop up with a black screen then go back down after about 3 secs, it only does this sometimes.

The car dealer i purchased the car from has agreed to pay to get this fixed but i dont think there will be anyone around my area thats had experience with these, he did say the nav screen was working when he had the car, but before he had the car delivered to me he had an fm band expander fitted and the ETC toll card reader removed (this was an aftermarket ETC, not the standard optional one), he seems to think there may be a lose wire/connection somewhere there from when this was done, the car also had a flat battery when it arrived from what i was told (not sure if this would affect it at all)

Has anyone had the same problem before? if so what was the solution?

The screen seems to be working fine today lol, any help would be great.

Cheers

The screen has been working all day today, hasnt popped back down after 3 secs like it has been doing the past few days.

It now stays up but displays these messages and will sometimes goes black/blank.

This is what the screen has been showing, anyone know what they mean? last pic looks like a symbol for a cd?

Yep - my 2005 coupe does that occasionally on a hot day. I suspect the button on the top sticks. A couple of taps after it's cooled down and all seems OK again.

Actually it does seem to be worse on a hotter/sunnier day, seems to not fault on cooler/darker days

Might not be 100% correct but hope it helps..

The first screen says "if you want to turn off the screen, press **** button again" (i think the button its referring to should look like the first two characters of the message)

Second screen "please insert disc"

third screen "press that button (on the left )to turn off screen and set as screen saver"

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
