a customer of mine has a m35 with stock nav, dvd, reverse cam... everything is bone stock on the car.

Problem: while playing dvd, on dvd screen, tehre is a static film on top of it.. you can kind of see the picture but there is a lot of static. and when you put it in reverse (reverse camera), same thing. but on every other screen (sys information, nav, climate, fm, am ) --- WORKS PERFECT..

Attempts: an infiniti specialist tried fixing the problem by adding his own screen and dvd player, but it is exactly the same problem.

When you unplug dvd player and reverse cam, it is still static.. only when you unplug nav player / rom, then the screen turns off.

so basically, this is what i did to bypass it: when i bypassed the first time, i bypassed the parking brake and speed sense wire; which WORKED for four months straight before this problem happened..THEN BAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! STATIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HELP!!! WHAT CAN I DO????

i've been trying to fix the problem for 6 months now, and the screen is slowly slowly slowly getting more color.. just a tabb bit but i havnt done anything to it....

Welcome to NICO.

A complete WAG: sounds like electrical noise and interference from some electrical item in the car that is not properly grounded. I'd check the electrical wiring in general near the unit.

If the screen is getting poorer over time, it may also just be a bad LCD screen, but it sounds like that got "fixed" for a while

Personally, I'd get the whole screen (DVD player, NAV and all) replaced. Hopefully, it is still under warranty.

i'd take it back to the dealer.. but this is what happened..

i took it back once with subs in the car.. simple amp/sub wiring..

they said for us to take everything aftermarket out.. which i did..

then they put it into their computer.. that i have aftermarket stuff which voided the warranty..

noww.. all infiniti dealers wont touch it at ALL...

Exactly what does it take to bypass and have the capability to watch a DVD while driving? I often take long road trips and would like to have this available. Dealer said 'No' when I asked - probably for liability reasons.

Is it common - what happened to razo168? Or is that a rarity?Please advise.I have a '06 M35 w/ sport, tech and journey pkgs.

Thanks.

Welcome to NICO! There are a number of very specific threads on this bypass capability ... please do a search and you will find them!

What is happening to razo168 does appear to be an unusual thing, as far as I know.
