System Locks Up Constantly

System locks up constantly

1. Start the engine and turn the ignition switch OFF, then turn the ignition switch ON (II).

Does the system reboot?

YES - Intermittent failure. The system is OK at this time. Check for loose or poor connections.

NO - Check the DVD for scratches or damage and the navigation unit for water damage. If OK, go into the Diagnostic Menu and do all of the "Unit Check" tests. Also check for low battery charge or poor charging system performance.
