Default Dealer Thinks I Blew The Computer

They check all my fuses and electrical and nothing was fixed, so they think it's the computer.

How easy is this to replace and what cost am I looking at?

Doubt I could buy a used one, so maybe a junkyard?

after picking up my car, I think they just were referring to the WHOLE navigation unit. Which is better than the ECU haha now to hunt for a used navigation unit.

Don't try to fix the touch screen digitizer yourself folks

Have you even tried hitting up tommy to see if he can help you out? I know he does the frozen nav screen fix. Not sure how you managed to sabotage your nav exactly though...

To be fair, the ECU is much cheaper than the navigation unit. Haha.
