NOTE: The navigation DVD and the navigation unit are
correct for the vehicle, but earlier and possibly later
versions of the navigation software may have been
installed. When this happens, the software may not be
recognized by the navigation unit, and could cause the
navigation unit to revert to an Acura model profile.
1. Remove the navigation unit (see page 23-155) and verify that the part number printed on the
navigation unit label is the correct one for the year/
model vehicle you are working on.
Go to step 2.
Replace the navigation unit with the correct
unit for the year/model vehicle you are working
on.
2. Reinstall the navigation unit.
3. Remove the navigation DVD (see page 23-155).
4. Note the software version marked on the navigation DVD label and verify if it is the correct
version for the vehicle year/model you are working
on by checking any official Honda service website
for more service information about the navigation
system and navigation software.
Replace the navigation unit (see page 23-155).
Go to step 5.
5. Obtain the correct version DVD (see page 23-94), and install it.
The problem is resolved, troubleshooting is
complete. The system still shows an Honda Globe
Screen. Replace the navigation unit (see page
23-155). 1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
Press and hold the Menu, the Map/Guide, and the
Cancel buttons, for about 3 seconds. The display
screen then goes directly to the Diagnostic Menu.
2. After the display changes to the Diagnostic Menu, select the item you want to check, and the test
begins. To return to the previous screen, select
Return.

 The Angle is the angle that the sun (shown with the red dot) is above the horizon.
 The vehicle value represents the angle, clockwise from North, to the direction that the vehicle position
(VP) icon is pointing (always points straight up).
 The direction value is the angle, measured clockwise from the VP (straight up) to the suns position.
 The reliability ranges from 1 to 3, and represents the accuracy of the Vehicle Position relative to the sun. This screen displays the current version of the program,
and allows the loading of a new version of the program
either from a CD/DVD or from a PC card.
The Program Flash version should always be greater
than or equal to the Program Disc version. IPL, APL,

The Model code is SNR and is for factory use only. This
code is stored on a chip in the navigation unit.
Therefore, every model has a unique part number for
the navigation unit.
NOTE: If any model number other than SNR is
displayed, replace the navigation unit with the correct
part. The model code tells the navigation unit what
software to load off the DVD.
Do not use Download, unless instructed to do so by the
factory.

function. 1. Select EXPORT button to move the client’s data
from the original navigation unit to the PC card.
Select YES on the Export User Data Confirmation
screen. The process takes only a couple of seconds.

DVD Handling and CleaningEarliest DVD Version Application for Each
Model
23-270 Navigation System
General Troubleshooting Information (cont’d)
To avoid damaging or leaving fingerprints on the DVD,
always handle it by the edges and place it in a jewel
case whenever it is outside the navigation unit. Deep
scratches or fingerprints on the back of the DVD can
cause intermittent rebooting or other system errors.
Smudges and fingerprints can be carefully removed
using a mild cleaner and tissues designed to clean
eyeglasses. To clean a DVD, use a clean soft cloth. Very
gently wipe across the DVD from the center to the
outside edge, never in a circular motion.
Do not place stabilizer rings or labels on the DVD. Each navigation system DVD contains a map/POI (point
of interest) database and the navigation system
software for each model that it supports. Inserting an
older DVD can cause problems since it lacks the
software to provide the specific features needed for that
model. Unfortunately, the navigation software does not
detect or warn you that the version is outdated, and it
may even appear to operate.
NOTE: Replacing a DVD just because the version
number is higher is not always warranted. A higher
software version does not necessarily mean it contains
newer software for your model. The DVD contains
software for all models that use the same color DVD,
and a revised number may or may not have software
fixes or upgrades for the model in question.
Typical warning symptoms that an outdated DVD is
being used include:
 The Acura model navigation screen may display a Honda logo while booting up.
 A newly introduced model feature or current accessory may not display properly, and Extension
will display instead.
NOTE: Extension may be displayed when using
Music Link, but should never be displayed when XM
is selected.
 The current street (the street being driven on) does not appear properly at the bottom of the map screen
display when the vehicle is driven on a main road.
NOTE: If necessary, compare the operation to the
navigation system of the same model and year
vehicle that has a current DVD.

How to Identify Navigation DVD Versions,
and How to Inspect A DVD for Damage
23-271
To determine the navigation version on a particular
model, start the engine, then locate the navigation unit.
Open the DVD door, and push the eject button to eject
the DVD. Hold the DVD by the edges, and check for
these items: Check any official Acura service website for more service information about the navigation DVDs.
 The DVD label color.
 Read the DVD version on the label, and note it on the repair order. The version number is near the bottom
of the label text (for example, ver: 4.23A). You will
need this version number:
– To verify that the DVD version is appropriate for the vehicle. Check any official Honda service website
for more service information.
– Any time you call Tech Line regarding a navigation system issue.
– To answer client inquires concerning update or coverage issue.
NOTE: Client’s may obtain DVDs from sources
outside the normal ordering process. If you
determine this is the case, recommend that your
customer purchase the appropriate DVD from the
Acura Disc Fulfillment Center (see ORDERING A
DVD).
– Check the underside of the DVD for signs of mishandling. Deep scratches, or random scratches,
light swirl marks, or fingerprints can cause random
lock-ups, reboots, erratic voice response, erratic
positioning errors, and DVD read or format errors.
NOTE: A damaged DVD is not covered under
warranty unless the disc is damaged by the
navigation unit. Damage by the navigation unit
typically appears as circular scratches caused by
something rubbing against the DVD as it spins. The
damage may appear as arcs or complete circles on
the DVD reading surface.
– Verify that the underside of the DVD is silver, and not a copy with a blue color. Copies will not work
properly and can cause other symptoms that mimic
hardware problems.  Incorrectly colored DVDs being put into navigation
vehicles. This causes the system to either display
error messages, or causes system malfunctions that
mimic a hardware problem. This results in the client
leaving with a malfunctioning navigation system.
 The DVD version provided to the client is out-of date or incompatible with a particular model. This
inconveniences your client by delaying the repair, or
by causing additional (and unnecessary) returns to
your dealership.
 The client experiences bugs or other issues that have already been resolved in later versions currently
available at the fulfillment desk.
If the DVD is defective, or has any of the issues
mentioned above, return the vehicle to your client and
recommend that they order the proper DVD from the
Acura Disc Fulfillment Center.
NOTE: Navigation DVDs do not come with replacement
navigation units. If you are replacing a navigation unit
because it is defective (following appropriate service
manual troubleshooting), and the DVD does not eject,
order a DVD. See Obtaining a navigation DVD.
