Nav Gen 2/3 Update 12.1v - Nav Override still works on '05 GS430
Just Updated my Map Disc from Ver 4.1 to 12.1 today.
Well, I'm here to prove that I'm still able to do the Manual NAV Override function after updating to 12.1 map disc..
There was some rumor that once you go with map ver. 8.1 or above the "Nav Override" function becomes inoperable?? Answer: --> (False on 2GS with Nav Gen 2/3)

it wasnt a rumor micheal, on 8.1 you did indeed lose it. i know i had it. they replaced it on 11.1 or 12.1 i think.
wow, you went from 4.1 to 12.1 i bet that is much much better

I just looked at the spec sheet and Gen 2 is 2001 cars, and Gen 3 is 2002-2005. I know you have a '01, what year is Micheal's? IF yours and his locked you out at 8.1, I'm wondering if this only affects Gen2 Nav but Not Gen3..?

sorry Don, i had a brainfart and was calling you Micheal for a minute. i had a gen 2/3 (depending on when in the year the car was made they switched to gen 3) which fried and then i upgraded to a gen 4 and it did the same thing....before removing it, i had the Gen 4 with the custom prestigious society override
