Idea on how to Disable NAV Startup Screen
I just ordered my coupe on Monday, but I have been following the forum for a while and thought of something last night.....
I saw a thread a while back about someone using a time delay relay (with like a 2-3 second delay) to give an electrical pulse on the VDC switch to "automatically" turn off VDC when their car was started.
I was wondering, could a similar relay setup be designed to trigger the "ok button" on the navi to accept the disclaimer?... or are the navi buttons impossible to mod because they're on a circuit board?
Again I don't have my coupe yet so I have no idea, but I was wondering if anybody looked into something like this? it seems like a bunch of people are annoyed by having to do this every time they start the car.

Mods... i think this post should probably be in the Audio/Video/Sat/Nav forum... can you move it?

Should work, theres nothing special about the navi buttons, but your gonna have to take a soldering iron to a part that may cost $1000 to replace if you make a mistake.

Has anyone actually taken the NAV unit apart? I personally don't have the ***** [yet] to remove it from my car and disassemble it! The circuit itself would be extremely easy to make, but installation would be very dificult.

Re: Idea on how to Disable NAV Startup Screen
Personally I have no skills whatsoever with this type of stuff... I just started the thread because from reading the forum for a long time it seemed like everyone wanted to get rid of the startup screen so I thought maybe this would be a way to do it...
I was hoping someone smarter than me with circuits, etc. (read: engineers) might have something to say about it.
When I started the thread I think I was forgetting that the buttons for the navi are probably soldered directly onto a circuit board (like the A/C controls) and not free floating switches like the VDC one.
I would be willing to take apart my navi just to see how everything is connected, to see if such a mod is even worth thinking about. But... I'm not getting my coupe till the first week of June.

Re: Idea on how to Disable NAV Startup Screen
I agree, it's become part of starting my car so I'm "programmed" to do it as well. Personally I think this link is better.....(don't know why, hehe)

I got the idea from that other link but took some pics for the mechanically challenged and those that are scared to rip apart the dash of their 40k car.
