Troubleshooting

If you have problems operating your Navigation System, refer to this section. The most common
problems are listed below, along with likely causes and solutions. While this list is not comprehensive,
it should answer your most common problems. If a solution to your problem cannot be found here,
contact your dealer or the nearest authorised Pioneer service facility.

Problems in the navigation screen

Symptom

Cause

Action (See)

Power doesn’t turn on.

The unit doesn’t operate.

Leads and connectors are incorrectly

connected.

Confirm once more that all

connections are correct.

The fuse is blown.

Rectify the reason for the fuse

blowing, then replace the fuse. Be

very sure to install the correct fuse

with the same rate.

You cannot position your vehicle on

the map or the positioning error is

large.

The quality of signals from the GPS

satellites is poor, causing reduced

positioning accuracy. Such a loss of

signal quality may happen for the

following reasons:

• The GPS aerial is in an unsuitable

location.

• Obstacles are blocking signals

from the satellites.

• The position of satellites relative to

your vehicle is bad.

• Signals from the GPS satellites

have been modified to reduce

accuracy. (GPS satellites are

operated by the US Department of

Defense, and the US government

reserves the right to distort

positioning data for military reasons.

This may lead to greater positioning

errors.)

• If a vehicle phone or cellular phone

is used near the GPS aerial, GPS

reception may be lost temporarily.

• Do not cover the GPS aerial with

spray paint or vehicle wax, because

this may block the reception of GPS

signals. Snow buildup can also

degrade the signals.

Check the GPS signal reception (

Page 48) and the position of the GPS

aerial if necessary, or continue

driving until reception improves.

Keep the aerial clear.

Signals from the vehicle’s speed

pulse are not being picked up

properly.

Check that the cables are properly

connected. If necessary, consult the

dealer that installed the system.

The navigation unit may not be

mounted securely in your vehicle.

Check that the navigation unit is

securely mounted and, if necessary,

consult the dealer that installed the

system.

Your vehicle is operating in Simple

hybrid mode.

Connect the speed signal input (pink

lead wire) of the power cable

correctly, and clear the 3D Hybrid

Sensor memory (“Learning

Status”).

The navigation unit is installed with

an extreme angle exceeding the

limitation of the installation angle.

Confirm the installation angle. (The

navigation system must be installed

within +30 degrees to –15 degrees of

the horizontal, or within five degrees

of your vehicle’s direction of travel.)
