The navigation unit on my IS350 suddenly black out. This is not the common touchscreen or frozen screen problem that people have. The music is off, sometimes it is on. AC no longer work. I have done some researches about possible fix and come up with the following:
1. Fuses are bad (will test)
2. Alternator is bad (probably not)
3. Battery is bad (definitely not)
4. Resetting the battery (will try)
5. Resetting the ECU (will try)

Anymore idea?
1. Replacing the navigation with Flyaudio unit works or not??
More ideas please. Thanks.

 

I have a complete navigation unit from a totaled lexus IS250 if you are interested.Its from a 06.

 

Sounds like the problem I had : https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...n-related.html

 

Is yours the Navigation having the word "Mark Levinson" in it? If not, does anyone know if this is compatible with the ML version? How much are you selling this? Can you please post picture of the unit please and tell me the condition of it. Thanks.

 

Gville350, thanks so much. I will give the eBay guy a try to fix it.

 

Sounds familiar to me too. Seems to be a fairly large issue. I really hope they can start recalling the units soon! I made my issues known to Lexus USA and several dealerships in my area.

 

Yes it is the Mark Levinson.You can see pics in the classifieds.I don't want money for it.You ll buy for me the things that I want from the 2014 Fsport bumper conversion and send them to me and I ll send it to you.What do you say?No one else seem to help me so I think it's a good deal.Pm me if you are interested.

 

That is almost like 2000. I think I will pass.

 

I have the bumper my friend, I want the grills the grill surround and the front emblem.I hate when someone has trouble with his car .I really feel you my friend.I don't find it so bad deal because the navi unit is not cheap to.I wish someone could help me and buy me those staff and send it as a gift to avoid Greek custom.everything is so expensive here .Anyway I hope you find the best deal for you

 

Thanks. Do you know how much is the parts that you need? I'm also afraid that shipping back and forth from Greece to USA will be costly for both of us

 

to OP:
I would go with eBay guy Gville350 suggested.
Another member and Myself had the same issue and he was able to fix the problem.
Probably cheapest and fastest route.

 

A seller from Ebay wants 631$ for these parts but if I buy them from there I have to pay 55$ for shipping which is great but he also wants to pay 190$ for import charges.Thats why I need to find someone there ,buy them for me and send them VIA USPS as a gift so that I can avoid Greek custom.I wish I had someone there to find all these parts for me as cheap as he could and send them to me.I don't care if it's new.Anyway I m not sure if the navi unit will work in USA.I m in Europe and the navi is in English ofcourse but I m not sure if it will have a problem.If someone knows for sure

 

Thanks. It seems like there are couple ebay ones offering the services. Do you remember specifically who? Wow i'm glad he fixed it for you. Thanks so much for the info.

^I spoke with that ebay seller in Cumming, GA via text a few times when I had my NAV outage, and he was going to be quite accommodating; he was even going to allow me to drop it off in-person if I wanted to and watch what he does. I ended up getting lucky and found a local used '08 NAV unit for about the same price; so I went that route instead with positive results.
