Those steering wheel buttons will not work with your FlyAudio system. They interface with the OEM navigation system for voice-activated guidance, and answer/end mobile phone functionality over bluetooth. You would need to buy (and customize) several extremely expensive wiring harnesses, and somehow get them to interface with the aftermarket FlyAudio unit. This is NOT something you'd know how to do without a degree in Electrical Engineering.

When I go in to reverse, the backup camera says "TIP: check video signal" or some such. It was working fine a few days ago, and my car has been sitting around in the garage for two days and so I doubt a connection got loose.

Any ideas?

for those who are experiencing lag on load time on IGo8 maps and the clock being off please try the following method.

Go to Menu->setup->next->turn off "COLD START GPS". (the unit menu not the gps)

I did it and everything is working fine now.

hope this helps.

Hey all. Does anyone know if Flyaudio has any plans to incorporate a VGA in instead of the low quality composite video in only? Reason I ask is for those who wish to add a CarPC. Since the whole Flyaudio system is based off Windows CE and in of itself is a CarPC, wondering if any plans to add the input possibility or software to allow internet?

I have a couple of clients that see this message every now and then. It is not usually a consistent thing, but for some reason sometimes the FlyAudio doesn't recognize the signal from the backup camera temporarily.

I haven't heard of any plans to incorporate VGA. That certainly would be cool!

it is persisting since the week end? Do you recommend I take apart the trunk and check teh connections? Or is there a way to force the software to "reboot"?

I would check the connection 1st. Make sure to check the video connection, but also the wiring, to make sure that the camera is getting enough power. Did you solder the wires or just splice and connect?
