Navteq Connect G2 DB3 for Fiat Bravo 2

[rimini]

Hi,

I seem to have a hard time finding the maps for my G2 DB3 Connect Navi+ in my Fiat Bravo, anyone know where I should look if not paying 150 euro for an original disc?

Best,

Peter

You could use the RT3 maps which are G2 versions
RT 3-4-5 maps v 2010-2011 europa

Yeah, I have tryed that already, but it seems my unit dont want to accept it ... when I put the CD in the unit will show the map, update screens for a few seconds, but then get stuck freezing. Then if lucky update again after 30 seconds or so.

If I take the CD out the coordinates (longitude etc) are updating fine... so I really dont know what is wrong.

The unit plays fine mp3 and CDs as well, so it cant be the laser.....

The only thing I didnt try yet is the Navteq G2 DB3 which is made for the car:

eBay - The UK's Online Marketplace

But maybe its even the same on this one ? ... hmmm

My screenshots for the FW is here (looks like its 12.4):

And what result do you obtain from using the regular Connect Nav + Images?
Navteq Connect Nav + Europe 2010-2011

I get exactly the same result, super poor updating (or almost no updating), when I take disc out coordinates update perfectly....

So both that links have been tryed ... hmmm ?

Then there is something wrong with your unit
Have you updated the unit yourself with one of the posted images here.
Since I always warn against updating with a copy I would not be surprised at all that you may have bricked your unit.

No, the unit came already from Italy (bought it on Ebay) with this FW 12.4 ... so didnt make any upgrade on it at all....

Funny if something wrong with the unit, since the laser play fine the mp3 or CDR (music).

The fact that the laser is suitable for Audio and MP3 sadly does not mean the laser is OK for reading Navigation data discs
This has been proven many times since the erro correction method is totally different.

I am inclined to think that the unit is either defective or needs a new laser unit
Best thing is to cancel the purchase and ask for a refund

OK, you have heard about this issue before, and this would be like the unit would react ?
