The Carin needs to be told where it is (once).  If yours loses this after ign off, back to the wiring, check it has a perm 12v, as well as ign 12v.

is it best to move the attener under that mesh bit near the rear window

Thats irrelevent - if its losing location as you switch ignition off, you have a wiring issue

Right - once you have set the car location, does it track properly from there on? Is it only after you turn it off it loses its locations?  Yes or No answers to both Qs.

when i first plugged it in it comes up track then 2d pos or somthing like that

when i turn the ignition off then back on and don't move the car it comes straight up 2d pos

if i move the car then turn ignition off then turn back on it does cum up track for a bit then goes to 2d pos

i'm starting to think if it gots the right disc in :-/

FFS, I dont give a toss how many effing satelites it can see - that really DOES NOT MATTER on this unit.

DOES THE CAR STILL KNOW ITS LOCATION AFTER IGN SWITCHED OFF.

YES or NO

not so good news
the sat nav aint got a clue where its going

its got a nav tec 2005 disc in
i think it may be where my airel is i will try moving the airel and trying again

does anyone know if they automaticly relocate the car postion or do i have to do it every time :-/

As soon as you switch it on, it should find the satellites and tell you where you are. I mean, that's the point, surely. My cheapo binatone never puts a foot wrong (except the time I got lost in a black hole in Nottingham)

mine aint doin that

ST Anns??

Triumph Road and surrounding areas.

Brilliant

So when you drive down the road, does it know when you hit the junction at the end? Or does it still think you are outside your house? Or elsewhere?

[nick v6]

it thinks i'm going else where
sometimes it will be fine and say turn this way that way etc etc
and other times it will say do a u turn for no reason or say tun left when no turning near by

the disc is a nav tec if that might be of fault

Assuming the roads haven't changed near you lately, the map should be fine.

Back in the service menu, is it seeing speed pulses, and does it show FWD in all gears except REV?

yep shows everything ok
the roads have been the same since i was born
and speed pulses work in all gears and goes rev when reverse is selected

And to confirm, FWD in all other gears?
