Hey guys, after nearly three months in the shop, I finally got to bring her home.
Navigation problem fixed. Curious though, with the new navigation unit I have noticed several other things about the car that are different than before.
I am getting status messages on the instrument cluster that I could not get before. The passenger rear view mirror angles down so you can see the tires when backing, and the rear head rests lower when backing too.
These did not work before the repair of the Nav unit.
Plus the best news for me is the 6 disc CD player works flawlessly. Before the repair the Nav screen would tell me "no CD magazine".
Just thought this info would be helpful to those experiencing issues similar
