Default Navigation / Telephone Speaker Problem

Hello everyone,

Hope all is well!

I have the following problem with my 2004 LX470:

The speaker used for navigation voice guidance and for bluetooth telephone cuts in and out and works intermittently. The sound system (the radio) is otherwise okay.

Has anyone seen this before or know of a fix for same?

Thank you!

I found what I believe to be the navigation system under the front passenger seat by raising the seat to its maximum height and sliding it all the way forward, shown in the first picture. It seems that the wires to the box are to the front of the seat bottom, but I am having difficulty accessing them because even if I were to slide the seat all the way back, there is a panel obstructing same. Does anyone have any recommendations on how to gain access to the area?

Otherwise, I found the strange circular vent shown in the last two pictures under the driver’s seat. Does anyone know what it is!? I know it’s not heating ducts for the rear passenger floor, as same are on the center console.
