406 coupe sat nav display

Post by saghir »

Hi guys

thanks for helping or reading at least.

I have a 406 coupe 2.2 hdi defaped and remapped i did it myself well proud.

I have another problem which is the sat nav display. Its very pixelated and line every where.

I have opened it up and am good with electrics but need some help as to where to start fixing it from.

Any ideas would be appriciated.

P.S if anyone has a 2nd hand sat nav display i would be interested in buying it.

That means the LCD itself is shot (not fixable), so you'll be wanting a replacement.

Try Ade1122 in the coupe forums or on eBay, same name. He's a coupe braker.

Dimming on one side? Sure it's not one of the three rear lamps broken? Yes they do tend to become very how, the 3 lamps behind (at least in the standard non satnav display) are 5W I think, which is a lot for that small non areated space.

How much did you pay it from Ade, if I dare ask?
