Default "possible navi fix thread" A SUCCESS!!!!! it work again :)

I love my car again, after 1 month and a half of being sour with my car I have finally got my navigation working. The all too known issues is simply exactly what it said on the "possible navi fix" thread...

Even after a failed attempt at soldering and burning the plugs I was able to use the circuit write pen .......








.......... and wahhlaa!! :zoom:

Yes, the terminal has 4 copper contact points with the screen, after testing with probes for ohms resistance I completed the dead circuit (1,3).. 2,4 had 536 goin through it, they were fine.
