The maps are better, the background images are different but not much better, and there are some improvements to the menus, plus the ability to do NavTraffic

so to those who have the n1 and upgraded to the n2 discs... did you guys notice anything different other than the obvious lock out such as different displays, different graphics, added graphics, new menus or more acurate maps? And are these discs N2 discs that come with the unit or are they specific n1 upgrade discs?   Thanks for any input.

hey guys, newbie here.. just saying hello and that this forum is too funny for the responses on the avic n2.

just so you all know.

i canadian and we don't lie ;-)

i did the r197 bypass and it worked great.

i am surprised that there is very few people that say so.

the pioneer police thread.. that was too funny!!! LOL

cheers

This question got posted a while back but i couldn't see an answer so I will ask it again. On the wiring harness for the D1 the only open slot is the top right. Is this the spot to insert the new wire and ground. I have installed the D1 with the parking brake grounded now I am trying to finish the rest of the bypass. Any help appreciated.

Isn't the most crucial part of the bypass on the N2 not melting the wax around the pins?  Well isn't there somw type of conducting paste that doesn't require soldering that could be used instead?  May be a dumb question but somewhere I thought I had heard of such a thing.

hey guys.. i am not sure what the issue is... if anyone knows how to solder is to just apply the heat when needed...

i added a wire to junction the two points and it works great,

all done... no issues.

man.. reading all the threads and discussions on this topic made me nervous... you guys are paranoid... ;-)

i hear ya.. my point is... that the task is trivial, just solder the two points... don't worry about heating.. don't worry about anything... if you know how to solder then you should be fine....

common sense here... don't use a blow torch to solder the connection ;)

The N2 bypass does not work.  I tried it and it blanked out my monitor.  I was lucky that I was able to remove the solder and same the system

dude.. you are mistaken, it works fine...

i have done it to mine.. took me like 5 min to solder the wire... and thats it.

works over 40km works at 180km....

i get full functionality of the nav system.

piece of cake.

make sure you ground your green wire.. the parking brake to the body of the car.

i still didn't hook up my pink wire.. the reverse..

the unit rocks.. so precise!

love it so much i am buying another one for my jeep.. and you guessed it.. doing the bypass again.
