Navigation problem :(

pesteprajit · 11-12-2011, 07:53 AM

Hi All!
i have a X3 from 2008 which has Professionall navigation and now after having absolutely no problem with it, the screen turned black and never recovered... The radio and cd player function is working but the display is black. i really dont know what to do... i think a reset would work, but have now idea how to reset this kind of navigation. Please help. regards BMW fans!

I want to say that is a MKIV system.

It sounds like the display may have died. The only way to be sure is to have it connected to a computer and have the system check whether is can recognise the part or not. This means a trip to a dealer or if you can, take it to an aftermarket BMW workshop who woould also have this equipment. Good Luck!

If you have Television, unplug the nav drive blue and purple connectors, disconnect and reconnect the battery. The TV tuner will take over the image generation (albeit in dodgy 8 bit).
