Bypass lockout on AVIC-N2, AVIC-D1

Did you ground the parking brake wire?  No toggle switch needed.

I have ground it to the same ground wire as the radio. I know i soldered correctly for after i have done that and touched the parking wire to ground everything came up except my traffic nav. When i connect everything and begin to pull off it locked up again.

Now one more question, i had a N1 and it was stolen then i got a N2 but i use the same antenna would this give me the no traffic funtion for i have paid for the service already?

Hello Peeps: I have a question and a comment for you all:

Back in June of 2005 i bought a AVIC-D1 with the 1.2 version map disc. I did the harness wire mod and it worked fine for a month or so and then the unit started giveing me problems. I dont think they are related to the mod however. THe navi is freezing contantly .  i can go for mile and the map freezes then it will come back to where i am located. Anyways it keps gettign worse and worse well finally last week i decided to exchange it from where i bought it. I get it home today and swap the unit out of the dash : check the map disc to make sure i didnt have a different version and everythign looks good. I boot the unit up and the first thing i notice that is difference is a screen the states teh the parking break wire is not properly installed or the navi is inilizing upon initialization or fix of the parking breakl wire the message will go away. you press ok and then the normal navio map agreement window is there. you click ok and everythign seems to be normal. all functions and movies even play via input. Now this is where things relaly change. sitting still in the car everythign is fine however when you move past 10 mph or so a attention screen appears in the screen and states that watching a movie is not permitted while driving. HMMM i have neever seem this one before and have done the mods on many D1's..... now it seems as though the D1 now is gyro driven and shuts out at 10mph or so. I didnt check the harware revision on the old unit however if my memory serves me correctly i think it is diffferent. ....

So any help is great...................thanks guys (and some girls) 

Ok, every ground wire should have it's own ground.  Don't use the same one, just ground the parking brake wire somewhere else.  Also, once you connect the AVIC and ground, try resetting it, sometimes the system just needs to be reset so that the NavTraffic info works again.

The parking brake message will go away with time, or at least mine did.  As for the other one, maybe your "extra" ground wire came loose in the swap.  Make sure that pin is snapped in all the way

I will do this for i have done the reset before on both the head and brain. This did get it to work for a few lapse in the parking lot but the NavTraffic didn't work but when shutting down then powering back up...the system locked out again when driving off as before. I will do another installation of the radio to have a complete clean install with advice from you in here. Now when i add the Xpv dvd changer; how would i install the parking brake wire?

To ground
