do you have the sd card with the maps on? the only thing i can think of is the language setting on the nav (have you tried this?).... does it come up with English on your dash cluster also?

Is it the Ford Blaupunkt system or an aftermarket job from China with DVD etc? If its the Ford one is it Touch Screen or not? I have a PDF file for the Ford versions which I can email you if you PM me your email address.

It is the Touchscreen version of the Blaupunkt then. A PDF file is a document that can be opened in Adobe. A lot of instructions and books etc are made in pdf files to stop people making changes without copywrite..

So coming up to a week after ford checked the car and the aerial unit not working still waiting on sales manager from garage i got car from getting back to me as to wether they will pay to get it fixed, hopefully he will let me know tomorrow( not holding my breath) lol, got new footwell lights today which are coolpost-52256-139655280006_thumb.jpg

Foot well lights look cool. I would think they have got to fix the satnav or replace it as they are liable under the sale of goods act. They cant sell you faulty goods and expect not to put things right.

U would think so mate, its just getting annoying now every time i phone its someone else dealing with it and they will phone me back but they dont so ive got to phone next day
