Sat Nav

[Hazel]

Evening all, my sat nav has given up on my 8 yrs old Subaru Outback. The screen reads "NOT MAP DVD" & is black other than that. The rear reversing camera works & radio works, although cant access stations.

Can anyone recommend a fix? TIA

Thanks

Confirm you have a disc in the drive for the satnav? You could try a reset, there should be a small hole on the face near the disc loading slot - push a paper clip or pin there to reset the drive. The drive ought to be in the glove box/cubby.

@Hazel

How many discs do you have and are you trying them in the dvd drive in the cubbyhole, or in the cd player slot?

@Greenmamba  i have 2 discs, & i did put them into cd player slot! I shall look for drive, cant say i have ever seen one though.

Thanks

@Greenmamba . Ok, so i found the drive, it was behind what looked like part of the radio fashia.I inserted another disc, there was one in there already, & now it works ok.

Thanks for your help
