darzo Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Hi there My 54 plate Freelanders Sat Nav has just decided that it doesn't like the disc, keeps coming up with 'insert installation disc.' I have had the car 2 years and have never even touched the disc, why has it just decided now that it's not going to work? Maybe cus we are getting a caravan and need the sat nav now? Any advice please. Zoe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorsetfreelander Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 A lot of electronic problems can be solved by completely powering off the unit waiting a few minutes and then restarting. By this I don't just mean turn the ignition off, I would find the fuse that drives the radio, satnav etc and remove that for a while then try again. If that doesn't work then look for a replacement unit as these things are very difficult to fix. PS other solution is BUY A MAP, I gave up on my sat nav and where I work I often get phone calls from people who get lost following them and haven't got a clue where they are.

darzo Posted March 25, 2010 Author Share Posted March 25, 2010 Have tried cleaning the disc but to to avail. However, the whole unit does not work at all now as my ever so helpful partner decided to disconnect the battery and now I have to input a code which I do not have. Extremely not happy now!!

Mr Bean Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Go to your main dealer and they will sort the code out for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
