Need help from expert out there to tell me (if possible) what went wrong with my navigation system. It seems that it fails to acquire satellite signal. My navigation data: car: e46 navi: mk3 software version 3-50 See attachment for details. I did the speed sensor test, it does increase/ decrease correctly. Thanks in advance. |

Could be a problem with the satelite antenna, that happens sometimes. If it doesn't find itself after a while then maybe bring it in to the dealer for antenna diagnosis since their tester can read antenna signal stregnth among other things.

Can the dealer use GT1 to diagnose?

Yep. It will tell them if there are any stored faults in the system as all the control modules have self diagnosing capabilities, and they can look at "status requests" to see things liks antenna signal stregnth.

Antennas are cheap on ebay. Make sure your antenna is plugged in to the nav. A new antenna is a cheap test.

It can only be a failled antenna or faulty receive rmodule inside the nav
The antennas are more likely to fail than the receiver, I would suggest fitting a replacement antenna. They are cheap! |
