Hi guys,

I recently had a similar problem with my sat nav/computer and its quite worrying!. Have got pictures below and would appreciate any help/advice..

Basically as I was driving along on the M1, all of a sudden the computer screen turned off then about 30 seconds later came back on but looking all blue!

This is what the main screen looked like



and this is what the computer option looked like



So I pulled over on the hard shoulder, switched car off and back on again couple of times and no change! I then took out the DVD and put it back in and again no change...

Then i took out the two fuses for the sat nav (73 and 75 I think) and when I put em back in and started car the screen was back to its normal colour but when you select the sat nav option I got the following



So I carried on my journey and bit later pulled into a service station and did the fuses again and then it worked!!

Since then its happened again (not the blue screen but the sat nav "please wait" part), and when it happens I take out the two fuses and put em back in it works again...

I have been told that it could just be that the unit and dvd need a clean as when the unit cant read the dvd it will overheat and cause it to hang/crash. Need to get hold of a good cleaner and have a go

Thanks
Urfan
