It says System Remote Turn On (AMP), but my navigation system doesn't have a wire that hooks up to that. The speakers are all hooked up correctly, as i've checked them multiple times. Any idea?
EDIT: Turns out it was the amp cord. I don't have an AMP, so I just hooked it up to the ACC, and it worked great.
I have mixed feelings about this GPS system, and maybe those of you who bought it can chime in. The radio works great, and the bluetooth phone thing is so-so. I can't seem to make it so that it talks through my car's mic. Instead, it seems to talk through my own phone's mic, and just bluetooths to my car's speakers. I want to be able to talk to my car and have my phone in my pocket, but it's not working like that. I still have to hold the phone and talk to it.
My GPS is just pathetic. The logic sucks, and the roads don't display very efficiently at all. You can travel up to a road and it won't display what it is until you're on it. Not to mention, once you exit out of the navigation, I can't get back INTO navigation. It just won't load.
Did I get a faulty unit? It also seems A LOT slower than the one that jb92563 posted. I'm really quite upset about that. Same exact menus... just slower

Try using the reset button that is next to the mini usb connection.
You may have to reset multiple times. Its a quirk of Win CE that runs on the Navigation side of this unit.
I have worked with other WinCE devices and they exhibit the same quirk and I sometimes have to reset the unit 3 times after changing files on the navigator SD chip.
If you change any files on GPS chip the system needs a reset.
Also, the SYGIC gps software that I got is licensed for a particular SD chip so you can not just copy it to another chip and expect it to work.
I hope you got a license SYGIC gps system on the original licensed SD chip.
Mine does not have any of the issues yours is showing so something seems amiss with yours.
From everything that I have researched the way these Navigators are set up is that the GPS side is running on WinCE6 and the Radio/video and other stuff is run by another part of the unit and share the screen. If something is slow on the GPS side it probably needs to be reset. The other funtionality should not be slow.
I am actually impressed by the DVD player as it can play cd's that are so scratched up that neither my other car player nor my PC can play them anymore.
The menus although functional seem to lack some pizzaz in my opinion but overall I still think that it funtions as good or better than the $600-$800 units I played with in the store before deciding to go this route.
Sorry that yours is giving you fits, but perhaps after several resets it will behave properly again.
