Has anyone any experience of remedying this problem? Unfortunately it means I cannot change the clock, or switch the screen off which is very irritating - and everyone who gets into the car comments on it! I've taken it in for repair, but was told it would have to be sent away and could cost up to £1000.

Any other suggestions please?

It is not under warranty? What about a dvd player cleaner? Would that help at all?

Thanks for your suggestion, but the car is out of warranty (5 yrs. old) - I could try the cleaner though. Will let you know.

Good luck. I hope that works for you. I used one for my cd player and that helped a lot with it working again.

I just fixed a similar problem on my CRV exec. (you will need your radio code to do this though)

Remove and strip down the Sat Nav unit and clean it's lens with a cotton bud. No more problem hopefully.

Of course try the CD disc cleaner first which may save you stripping this complex unit.

Cost: One cotton bud and an hour. (maybe a cd cleaner disc @ a fiver)
