I have a 2010 Honda Accord Tourer IDTEC 2.2 Type S with satnav.
The satnav was working fine up until recently but I fear I have now bricked it!
I tried putting the disc in the unit but it said "please wait. Upgrading software" then after a bit it said "please check the disc".
It now does this every time I put the disc in (original disc). It also says the same even if there's no disc in.
I do have a horrible feeling it might be dead. I've tried disconnecting the battery but this makes no difference.
I've been sent the following by a company I found on ebay:
Does anybody have any suggestions please?
I'm not desperate to get it fixed or replaced as I can use satnav on my phone but would like it sorted. Any repair service seems very expensive and a new satnav is ridiculously expensive. I would consider any repair or replacement options.
Thanks for taking time to read this.
