Default Navigation Fix, Yet?

Hi Everybody. I can not locate the exisiting thread on making the navigation system work while driving. Has there been a fix for this issue yet? Can you direct me on finding this fix if it has been identified?

Thanks!

Nothing yet.

Lexus is very hyperfocused on safety. Unfortunately, hacking it is not that easy...

See your dealer. The navigation system should work while driving, otherwise how would you know where to turn?

i believe (and hope) that he's talking about adjusting the nav like putting in new destination while driving

Rominl, can you tell I'm not in favor of hacking the system?!

I know this is not it (and my wife and I are brand new to Lexus - she just got an IS 250, and my 460 is coming next week)

But in this video

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WfFKP...elated&search=

is APPEARS to be the 5th gen nav screen, unless the 4th gen looked almost identical...

Anyway, it didn't work on my wife's 250, but I was mildly excited for a moment.

I've heard about cutting a wire - what does this do specifically, and what you you lose in terms of system functionality? (I doubt I would ever pursue this path, but my curiosity needs satisfying...)
