nav and phone override
Hi there!
Does anyone have any idea why I can not enter the hidden menu where the override feature can be enabled? I've tried it in motion, stopped, engine shut, ignition on but nothing. I press the menu-volume-upleft-down left, upleft-down left corners and nothing happens.
I have a GS 300 manufactured in 8/2005.
Any advice would be appreciated.
thx

The seat belt mod won't cooperate.
I tried the initial instructions over 5 times then read through the entire thread and saw the amendment. Still nothing,here is what IM doing, is this right.
1. get in car
2. hit start butoon twice w/out brake
3. select trip B with (odo trip) button
4.push and hold (odo trip) for more than ten seconds
5. put on seat belt
Anyone that got this to work please let me know whatIm doing wrong.

Ok, just tried it again and nothing, I must be very slow. What about this, when I select the Odometer, you have to push it once more to hold ten seconds then the display changes to Trip A.
Or should I select ODO and hold? Im going to try that and see if that works.
