Nav Help

Ok i know this is the wrong section, but this section seems to have more people responding in it then the advance audio... section and i posted there and havent got any responses yet and i need responses kinda fast. Thanks

 

Hey guys i just finished installing the 15800000 in my truck and even though it said on the description from ebay that it had no codes/vin in it... it did, even had some stupid cd in it. Well I did the bypass to make sure it worked, and it did. (bypassed by putting in acc position and then pulling radio fuse and putting back in). The radio will play cd's, got to xm, fm, steering wheel controls work, and rear entertainment works, etc....

 

The only thing it wouldnt do is play a DVD when i bypassed it... Is that normal for it not to allow a dvd to play in bypass? I havent got the nav disc yet(its coming to me) so i havent got to test that yet.

 

The only other question i have is about the procedure using the tech 2. I live in memphis and we got some pretty big dealerships with a few of the biggest chevrolet shops in the country to go along with them. But i have read where some dealerships couldnt figure out how to unlock the theftlock for some people while other people had no issues with the unlock process. If anyone can give me the procedures or check to see if the procedures im about to list is correct then id greatly appreciate it. On my unit it says TheftLock activated if i remember correctly without running down stairs and back out in the heat.

 

Radio Theftlock Clear Procedure

Complete the following procedure, using a scan tool, in order to properly set up communication:

 

Using a connected Tech2,

 

1. At the Main Menu screen, select: Diagnostics.

 

2. At the Vehicle Identification screen, select the following options:

 

? Model Year >>>Better pick 05 if it wont go pick 06

? LD Trk, MPV, Incomplete

 

3. At the System Selection Menu screen, select: Body

 

4. At the Vehicle Identification screen, select the following:

 

? Appropriate model

? Appropriate Air Conditioning

? Navigation Radio

 

5. At the Body Screen, select: Navigation Radio.

 

6. At the Radio screen, select: Special Functions.

 

7. At the Special Functions screen, select: VIN Relearn.

 

8. At the VIN Relearn screen, the scan tool will display "Do you want to clear radio theft information?"

 

9. To begin clearing, press the soft touch key on the top right of the scan tool. The scan tool will display "Clearing Radio Theft in Progress."

 

10. Press EXIT on the scan tool and cycle the ignition.

 

 

 

Also Does the radio need to be out of the truck to hook this tech 2 to it? I finished putting my truck back together, but if i gotta take it out for the dealership to unlock it thats fine cause im going to have to by a new Ambient light sensor cause i broke mine. Thant another thing, is that what the light sensor on the dash for the headlight is called? And does anyone have any ideas how much this will cost?

 

Thanks for any help, besides the theftlock and me breaking my light sensor... the install was pretty easy. I even installed the vss switch in the middle console

Ight sorry about my weekend stressing out on yall. I installed the thing and it looks great, but it was my fault to assume that the thing would play dvds just like the hummer does(even in park). Im fixing to go have it unlocked, then start working on it to play dvd's, or atleast display the video from the rear dvd system. I believe i have it figured out and will start the process as soon as i get it completely figured out. Sorry again
