I've used the satnav maybe a handful of times. When I touched the nav icon tonight I just got a black screen instead of the warning screen you get on start up. Has anyone come across this? Is there a way to reset the satnav? everything else is fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recently took mine back for a bluetooth and Sat Nav upgrade under warranty because both were not working properly.FYI - stay with car. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously need it solved and is under warranty. Screen just goes black when I click into NAV. If I click the black screen I can still hear the beeps as if the screen was functioning as normal but just not displaying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atiley Member 9 Member For: 18y 9m 15d Gender: Male Posted 09/02/15 06:45 AM Share Posted 09/02/15 06:45 AM I have had the same problem, they updated my icc it seems to fix the black screen problem. The sat nav in the car is pretty bad, it is very slow and lags a lot, sometimes it does not show the roads on the map. If you in the CBD it will move you around onto different streets, it cannot find you exact location.They way I fixed the black sat nav screen was to disconnect the battery, it fixed it for me but it is not the right answerMy FG MKii XR6T I brought it in 2012, I have just noticed a FG MKii XR6 and it has a large aerial on the roof like the FGX. I do not have this black aerial, maybe they have realised there is a problem. In the current brochure for the FG MKii they have added aerial's onto all the car's in the pictures.Who has a black Aerial on their FG MKii?

I have full signal strength but it constantly says 'redirecting' and it places me on a different road to what I am actually driving on. I've had Ford service dept do a diagnostic check and found nothing. Has anyone had a similar issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did a couple of resets via disconnecting the battery which would fix it. I was getting a different issue next time. I spoke to garage who suggested I change out the battery which was around 23 mths old. No more problems to date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SatNav is now working perfectly again. Regards Lance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
