Is there a way to bypass the Nav agreement screen without installing a switch on the 2006 model?

Sadly, it does not.

To dehumidify the air most likely.

Sorry, to bump this very old thread. But I am looking for a way to access override on my NAV, without buying a lock pick, because simply they are so damn expensive.

My car is a 2006, I'm not sure what GEN my nav is though. I think it's the newest update.

The 2006 LS430 uses the Gen4 disks.
There is no known way to bypass the "I agree" screen on version 5.1 and later.

I should have made it more clear - No way without adding some hardware.

If you add the VaisTech MML audio interface adapter, after a few seconds after start-up, the "I Agree" screen automatically switches to the map without having to touch "I Agree". This is a nice feature, and it is exactly how later generations (Gen 5) Toyota operate.

BeatSonic

We at Beat-Sonic also have a solution to override the NAV functions while in motion.

Please pm me for a special CL price.

Thanks!

$140.00 ++ so you don't have to spend 1 second with your finger is obnoxious. Maybe for $40.00 but otherwise the price is ridiculous.

I didn't pay $140 so I don't have to spend 1 second with a finger - I bought a digital audio interface for the audio capability that has an additional feature which overrides the "I Agree" button. You can't simply bypass the "I agree" annoyance with 5.1 version or later. I know there are other products that function similarly / separately / differently. MML is digital audio all-in-one. VaisTech is a CL product sponsor as well.

I agree. $140 is ridiculous, even $40 is too much.

I thought there would be a homemade hack.
But paying that type of money for some wire isn't worth it.

As Vais is a sponsor of CL, what is the price we get for the device?

To allow in-motion typing on the LS430 nav system, go to the Nav ECU (trunk passenger side), cut N4-5 (VSS - vehicle speed sensor, YEL/RED in 2002, VIOLET in 2005+) and use a 2-conductor cable (ie. speaker wire) to connect 2 separate wires to each of the cut ends. Don't use a thick gauge cable because it will be harder to tuck it underneath carpets/trim when running into the cabin. I used 20ga RadioShack speaker wire.

Remove the trunk trim and run the cable into the cabin, and then attach a SPST switch whereever you find convenient. I ran mine along the driver side of the car, above the pedals, and around to the center armrest. I have a switch that sits snug in between the seat and the center console.

If that doesn't work, you'll have to remove the front nav unit and cut the VIOLET/WHITE wire on the M4 connector. This is pin 5 on 2002, pin 25 on 2005.

On my 2002, I've done the front nav unit VIO/WHT wire cut, the rear unit switch N4-5 switch, and the front unit parking brake signal grounding (LT GRN wire).

Thanks, Stan! Very good information.

Thanks for the no BS video, Airtime

Are you saying there is a software mod to to a disc to override?

What he said. I just don't see how a disk GPS upgrade would change what I would think would be a hardware mod? So how does Lexus get into the screen IF they have upgraded your GPS disk? Follow?
I cannot override my Nav unit (v15.1 U30) so maybe there's some credence to this, I just can't see how.
Oh and to the guy who made the video, great job wish it worked for me.
