CIC Reboot Loop
 

Hi there,

I'm pulling my hair out on this one - tried to pull the FSC code from the car but it went into a loop. I didn't even get anywhere, I just popped the usb into the glove box and that is when my problems started.

I've got a mammoth of 24 hours+ driving over the holidays and I don't need this!

I removed the hard drive - navigation became greyed out and it was fine - the loop stopped - I was happy.

However after a 30 minute journey and leaving the car to sit for 45 minutes/1 hr, I started her up and it started to go into a reboot again.
I also notice now Navigation is no longer greyed out??? Its obviously trying to load the navigation, failing, then restarting.

Is there anyway I can force the navigation off so it stops trying to load?

In the mean time I've created a clone image of my HDD and I'm re burning the image to the original drive.

Any help or guidance would be greatly apprecaited.

I have scoured the forums and the removing the HD trick did work for a bit but now it seems to be trying to reload the navigation.

Update - So the hard drive still didn't work after cloning it and reformatting it.

However when I removed it again - the navigation has once again become greyed out and the cic unit no longer restarts - I haven't got time to go and drive it, so not sure how long this will last.

Any solutions would still be appreciated - would deleting the Navigation - US option in NCS force the CIC unit not to always have the navigation greyed out?

Cheers

Update 2 - This didn't last - Car goes back to trying to load the navigation



Any better suggestions to completely disable the navigation?
