NAV bypass!!!!!!!!!!!
Yo
Many of you might know this already but since I tried it in my 06 GX for the first time, I thought that I would share it with you in case anyone here didn't know about it. There is a way to bypass the safety system and allow you to input destinations and POIs while driving. However, you have to do this ever time you drive the car because it resets itself:
1) Push 'Menu'
2) Push 'Volume' on the screen
3) Push upper left corner of screen where speaker picture is.
4) Push lower left corner of screen where nothing is.
5) Push upper left corner of screen where speaker picture is.
6) Push lower left corner of screen where nothing is.
This brings up a menu.
7) Push and hold 'override' until you hear a beep and viola! Drive carefully!
You can turn the backup camera to work while you are going forward by doing the following:
Hold 'info' button on NAV unit while turning your parking lights on and off 3-5 times. this will bring up a menu screen. Push the menu button on the upper right corner of the screen. Push test camera and viola!
You can also push the test nav button and it will show you which sat you are connected to and how fast you are really going.
Turning the car off resets the system.
Enjoy,
