Help for Nav screen
I am new in the club. I only own my 04 GX less than two monthes. It is a great car I ever have and I really enjoy the ride on it. Recently I am reading all the past threads in this forum and trying to get much familiar to my truck.
Today, I was playing with the Nav screen Override that was posted in other thread. It was all my bad! For some reasons, I don't quite remember what steps I have entered, I ended up with massing up with the Nav system. The car now only displays the following screen after turning the key on.
The MAP, DESTand MENU buttons do not reponse. The DISPLAY, INFO, AUDIO and CLIMATE buttons seem to response correctly. I also tried to eject and insert the Nav DVD a couple times. It didn't help.
Does anyone here know what's wrong and how to reset the system? Your help will be greatly appreciated!

After two day's hard work. I finally fixed the problem by following the steps that RXCHICAGO posted on this thread http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums...ic=29621&st=30.
Do not ever mess up the Load Country key when playing with the Override menu!

I had your same problem...
I went to the dealer (Lexus of Mobile) and they wanted to replace my ECU at a cost of over $800.
Here is the 1.5 hour fix.

Just for curiosity. You fixed it the problem by just disconnecting the battery? Actualy in my case, that was my first try. I tried it several times ( I am an electrical guys. It is not hard for me to do that). It still showed the same screen. I ended up putting in a upgraded version V7.1 DVD. The nav system then prerformed system upgrade and back to english menu. I have exact same ECU as in your picture. I don't know why they behaved differently.

If you have this problem and you have access to an update disk, I would try that.
I know that once I drained the battery to the system, I accidently put the update disk in and it did not work there either. It wanted the disk that was already loaded on the system. After it booted, then I updated the system.
