Dvd Nav Fix

[tomQ]

I have installed 1DIN DVD/MP3/DivX player in upper glove box of my '06 CPV35. In place of DVD NAV unit.

Have to tell ya , it's not that easy as it sounds...

Thanks everyone on the forum for sharing installation tips etc... thought I'd give something back.

Bose Sounds amazing...video didn't work though ((

Monitor was switching to JAP map with crappy message popping up all the time...

After spending a night in the garage and getting sore back I finally found the solution, some of you might be interested in.

The Fix is for Series II V35 DVD NAV unit.

Model Number: CCU-3403M

Part Name: CONT ASSY-NAVI

32pin harness:

Pin-4 (Blue/Black) Cut or better wire to a switch as I did.

Pin-5 (Pink/Red) Connect to Ground.

So you did an in motion bypass by cutting the speed sensor and grounding the handbrake wire? Thats how i have interpreted your post?

I assume this mod does not work with series 1 2drs ?? or does it??

Fix for Series I V35 is a bit different.

24pin Gray Harness:

Pin-9 Cut or wire to a switch.

Pin-5 Connect to Ground.

I've found this fix on the inet, so if anyone can confirm it would be good.

This is not correct. When i did mine pin 8 is the speed sensor which needs to be put to a switch. But i cant find the park brake which needs to be cut in the wiring diagram. I found this by probing all the wires (use LED test light) while putting the park brake on and off. From memory its pretty close to the speed sensor wire. When you find it, just ground it.

pin 9 is illumination.....

No these are not correct.

Cool, could you check the correct pins you've cut for Series I ?

Series 1 is the white plug,

Pin 7 the purple with the white dot is the handbrake which gets cut and earthed

Pin 8 is the speed sensor which just needs to be cut. I would only put a switch there if you want to keep the screen functions working

The easiest solution would be to get it done programmatic-ally

So If the speed sensor wire is cut the screen functions would not work?

So If the speed sensor wire is cut the screen functions would not work?

I believe only in terms of mileage, maintenance schedules, and anything else that needs to measure distance travelled. Otherwise, all other functions not related to distances/speed will continue to work.

Arh SWEET so the module is under the passenger glove box area?? I was going to just splice/ground the park brake wire actually at the park brake,

but if its easier to do from the passenger module thingy even better, as I was going to do the speed sense wire also if I could find it! So that wire is

a BLUE/BLACK STRIPE RIGHT, How would one test you have the speed sense wire?

Excuse my ignorance here, im not a wiring techy at all. So by cutting the speed sense wire you can always watch video/screen function whilst on the move? A switch which some are putting in is for turning the screen off whilst driving right?

Isnt the reason for cutting it in the first place is to use the screen on the move? Bascially just wondering why a switch?

[Tommy Kaira RL]

The switch is to cut the speed sensor otherwise the screen will be blocked as soon as you start driving.

The switch is there so you can still have the use of the trip computer when not using the screen.

The easy fix is just get it converted to English with the video block removed in the program.
