dvd sat nav systemsystem

Hi all

I'm getting a current (p12?) primera estate with satellite navigation fitted and have heard that it can easily be converted to make it play dvd's(not while driving of course)
Anyone out there know how its done,the dealer say they cannot say but hinted that it is as simple as a switch but is it on the outside or inside of the unit and how do you get 2 it
thanks

Can't help you there. But I was under impression that it can play DVDs from the factory? Guess it can't. Hope you get it to work and also hope to see pictures of your car when you get it

Hi I am a Nissan Technician with 14 years working on Nissans.
The sat nav system in the Primera uses a DVD-rom, not a DVD player and cannot play DVD's. The software that is used is for Sat nav disc only.

The only way, would be to load different software into the DVD rom, but have not heard of anyone doing this.

Sorry

Hello,

I see only 1 option to solve your problem. You need a separate DVD player integrated into your factory installed navigation screen along with an NTSC to Video RGB Converter. You can purchase the RGB Converter from Nav-Vision.com or you can call Rudy Z with any questions you may have at 718 281-0511.

Regards,

Rudy Z

Re: dvd sat nav systemsystem

If it plays DVD movies, you need to do these:
1. There is a wire for the system that is connected to handbake's base, to a wire that turns on the handbrake light in the dashboard. You need to disconnect it from there.
2 That wire must be connected to a wire that takes 12VDC current, all the time. That will fool the system that the handbrake is on.

So...simple!
