I had this problem a while back and posted about it - the advice then was to spray some contact cleaner in the switch and hope that was sufficient. This time, apparently, it wasn’t.

Two ideas:

- I think there was a software update to the nav system which times out the Accept screen automatically. Others here may have more info on that update and whether it starts automatically when you put the update disc where the NAV map goes.

- I have the Stealthone integration for my Valentine One radar detector which shows the info on the nav screen. One feature it has is to dismiss the Accept button after a few seconds. That's why I didn't pursue option 1 myself. I don't know if Stealthones are available cheaply on eBay or elsewhere.
