Hello,
i bought on ebay six months ago a Mercedes Benz Komand suitable with my ML 2002 version togeter with its original aerial. The radio and cd work but, the Navi has a problem. It says 6 satellites. Tha position arrow is placed outside the road, a few meters far from it and no road name is displayed. When i move the refresh rate is more than 20-30 seconds. I asked the local Blaupunkt to check the komand and they say it is ok. They say my car has no can bus since ML had it until 2002 version and that it do not need it anymore. Hoping anyone can help me. Thanks BOB.

you do not put a can-bus into a vehicle.. sorry i dont have specs on your vehicle..dont expect gps to be within feet,i have seen very few that are perfect..as far as the road names,look into your menus,check all the settings you run across..experiment,but REMEMBER what you mess with !!!! so you can put it back...

The problem has been solved by changing two condensers. Thanks
