hi guys, this is my first post be gentle with me, i have a 98 opel omega fitted with the original phillips satnav it's a bit agricultural but worked okay until yesterday when it decided it was not going to scroll past the letter v does anyone have a clue what has caused this to happen, also i suspect that the cd is o/e since the car was new can anybody tell me if their is a later version & if so where can i get one.

     any help will be really appreciated, thanks. bikermike

does it scroll 'pre' v or has it locked altogether? if the latter then could be loose wire from control unit?

might be worth pulling power from unit for an hour or so.

Sadly, I think both teleatlas and navteq have dropped that unit specifically, though being CARiN, probably would work with most carin CDs.  I run a 2007/8 one in mine from another car (BMW in my case).

Don't be tempted to use CDRs in that unit, the laser will wear out much quicker.

Was going to suggest that also  :-/
