GPS problem XC 90 2005 T6

Post by roncop »

My 2005 XC90 T6 has an OEM Nav system. Up until recently it was working fine, then it started to display in MAP mode only, instead of 3D.
All of the other options seem to work fine.
I have attempted to reset to default settings but still no luck. I don't see anywhere you can choose map or 3D.
Also, no voice commands as well as no info in the spaces reserved for where you turn next, how many miles, what exit etc.
Does anyone have any advice?

Thanks,
Roncop

I suggest taking the Nav Cd out and putting it back in, may not work but its worth a try! Also if that doesn't work try calling your local dealership, they usually will help by phone no cost. Good luck!

Thanks for the advice. I attempted this fix a couple of times with no success. I just returned from South Carolina with my vehicle. I used the GPS for all 3,500 miles of my trip.
The unit would show the correct map view with no verbal or visual instruction. Then for some reason, 1 out of every 10 times I would turn off the ignition then restart....I would get voice commands as well as visual which would last for a few moments, then return mute.
I am going to contact Navtec and attempt to get an update at the same time, hopefully this will correct the situation.
Thanks for the response,
Roncop

You need to go back to the main dealer with this issue not Navtec, Navtec only supply the mapping data - Mike
