NAVI/AV Troubleshooting If you have problems operating your Navigation System, refer to this section. The most common problems are listed below, along with likely causes and solutions. While this list is not comprehensive, it should answer your most common problems. If a solution to your problem cannot be found here, contact your dealer or the nearest authorized Pioneer service facility. Problems in the navigation screen Symptom Power doesn't turn on. The unit doesn't operate. There's no sound. Volume level is low. When the ignition switch is turned ON (or turned to ACC), the motor sounds. You cannot position your vehicle on the map or the positioning error is large. Cause Leads and connectors are incorrectly connected. The fuse is blown. Noise and other factors are causing the built-in microprocessor to operate incorrectly. The volume level is low. Adjust the volume level. This unit confirms whether a disc is loaded or not. Action (See) Confirm once more that all connections are correct. Rectify the reason for the fuse blowing, then replace the fuse. Be very sure to install the correct fuse with the same rate. Press RESET button. (➞ "HardWare Manual" and refer to page 114 in this manual.) The attenuator is on. Turn the attenuator off. This is a normal operation. The quality of signals from the GPS satellites is poor, causing reduced positioning accuracy. Such a loss of signal quality may happen for the following reasons: •The GPS antenna is in an unsuitable location. •Obstacles are blocking signals from the satellites. •The position of satellites relative to your vehicle is bad. •Signals from the GPS satellites have been modified to reduce accuracy. (GPS satellites are operated by the US Department of Defense, and the US government reserves the right to distort positioning data for military reasons. This may lead to greater positioning errors.) •If a vehicle phone or cellular phone is used near the GPS antenna, GPS reception may be lost temporarily. •Do not cover the GPS antenna with spray paint or vehicle wax, because this may block the reception of GPS signals. Snow buildup can also degrade the signals. Signals from the vehicle's speed pulse are not being picked up properly. The navigation unit may not be mounted securely in your vehicle. Check the GPS signal reception (➞ Page 61) and the position of the GPS antenna if necessary, or continue driving until reception improves. Keep the antenna clear. Check that the cables are properly connected. If necessary, consult the dealer that installed the system. Check that the navigation unit is securely mounted and, if necessary, consult the dealer that installed the system. Appendix 116
