I bought the tvnav2go and a fuse tap.
I grounded the wire coming out from the back of the tvnav2go harness and powered the tvnav2go unit with 12v from the fuse tap

worked for 2 weeks but not anymore. Today the weather shifted from really cold to really warm. but the tvnav2go just wasnt working even though it was receiving power and its LED light was on.

I plugged the OEM harness in and found out that the navigation by itself works fine

I checked all the connections and used a spare slot in the fuse box to supply power and re grounded the grounding wire on the harness - but it still is not working.

any ideas? could the grounding wire have gone bad?

 

have you e-mailed them yet?

 

nah - i didnt have time to post it up until after their hours.


i will call em up tom - maybe its something stupid i forgot to do

 

great customer service from dominic

 

Let us know how it went. Or if you found a solution to it. thanks!

 

my nav to dvd switch in my TL was flipped for 1 whole day before i found out. i thought the unit went dead too, but fixed it just by flipping the switch back to navi mode.

your problem is probably worse, but just throwing in suggestions.

 

yea i sent the unit back.

sucks - i dun know what happened

hey Dominic, did you get the unit yet, if so do you have any ideas why it went bad?

 

the tvnav2go unit was replaced under warranty.

but the new unit has poor video quality. ive grounded the unit to the same locations as before...the quality gets better when you ground it but not as clear as the first unit i had. tons of those static lines

 

coolio

yea, everything is grounded. tv unit is static regardless of whether the video source is plugged in or not.

I'll call up later this week.

thanks mang

 

x2.
