(T) complete lack of info for connect nav

yup, as the title says, i cannot find ANY information, here or on the interweb, on the connect nav unit (not the connect+).

updates, features, issues, fixes, ....etc

as some of you may know, my connect unit is buggered, i have even removed it for the car for several hours and it still has the same settings.

it freezes when i press audio and will not eject cd that is inside.

Upgrade to Connect Nav+ then . . .

The problem with Connect is that it was withdrawn rather quickly from the Stilo lineup; initially there were three units, of which 2 were ever fitted, and then due to the stupidly low cost difference, Connect Nav was deleted and just Connect Nav+ was fitted.

I'd try going back to FIAT and asking them for an update disc from Teseo - there might be one available.

Try ejecting the CD when the ignition is not on and with the Audio module off.

ITS FIXED!

after i took the whole thing apart a few times, a mate from work decided to have a go, he was more familiar with the slot in mechanism than i was and managed to get the stuck CD-RW out.
plugged it back in and...........warning CD error

just as i was about to get out of the car and cry like a baby, it reset itself and all was good

so now i know its allergic to CD-RWs

still though there is a lack of info and resources for the unit. mine has firmware 7.1,

1) is there a newer version? how to get hold of it?
2) my maps are the navtec 2001, is there a newer version for the connect? if so how do i get my mutts on it?
3) will the CN+ maps work in it?

cheers guys, im sure im not the only one with the humble connect

And I bet the work mate was Ozzie .. little smart arse

hehe, nope, he was baffled it was martin, our fitter at halfords newport rd cardiff, top notch guy who knows his stuff

Glad to hear its working now. I wouldn't use CD-RW's with Connect Nav+, and I know the CD multichanger doesn't read them, and I'm pretty sure the standard headunits dont either.

As for the rest:

1. I doubt it, best place to go is back to FIAT.
3. Yes
2. Ask me nicely

pretty please with sugar on top

im surprised that the 2001 map has my street on it, considering it didnt even exist then!

You have PM .
