Mk-3 Navigation
Workshop Hints
Replacing the Mk-3 navigation computer
When replacing the Mk-3 navigation computer be aware that there are two hardware
variants depending on the installation position (vertical or horizontal).
The ignition should be in position 0 during removal and replacement of the computer. After
installing, close all doors, hood and trunk. A bus line reset will be carried out within two
minutes. Resetting allows the gyro to perform a calibration run. Do not move the car
during this reset period.
The coding sequence for the Mk-3 navigation computer has been changed from the
previous Mk-2. There is now an additional step (configuration) that must be done before
the software can be loaded.
After resetting, a configuration signal is needed to allow the computer to load the correct
software for use with a board monitor or MIR. This is performed using the DIS coding pro-
gram (CD 22.0 onward) and the Navigation System operating software (CD V15.0 onward).
Note: Vehicles using the wide screen BM require CD V16.1 onward.
1. From the DIS/MoDiC Coding /Programming
select “1 ZCS Coding”
2. Select the appropriate series
(E46,E39,E38,E52,E53)
3. Select “4 Conversion”
4. Select “3 IKE?Kombi”
5. Select “2 language”
6. At the prompt “is the CD ROM present?”
select yes , but do not install the operating
software CD ROM yet.
7. First select the main language and then an
additional language. (i.e. English-spanish)
8. Select the gender of the navigation audio
voice.
9. Select “automatic coding-yes”

10. After coding is done the DIS/MoDiC
instructs you to follow the instructions on
the monitor for the installation of the
Navigation System CD ROM.
11. Place the navigation system software in the
navigation computer CD drive.
Important: Do not switch the ignition off during the
software loading procedure. Do not use any soft-
ware for the Mk-3 earlier than CD V15.0.
12. Once loading has been completed, remove the
CD and then confirm completion by pressing
the rotary push-button on the monitor.
13. Turn off the key for 10 seconds, then turn it
back on and conduct a functional check.
14. After this step has been finished, encode the
navigation computer using the “Recoding” path
in ZCS Coding. The coding process involves
coding vehicle specific data: VIN, Model,
Telematics data etc.
The software status can be confirmed from the
“Set” screen for Mk-3 systems.
3 = Third generation system Mk-3.
1 = Device variant (1=Color screen, 2= MIR
monochrome screen).
20 = Software version of the graphic
component (Version 2.0).
After the navigation computer has been successfully programmed and coded the vehicle
should be left in an area with a clear view of the sky with the key in KL R for at least 15 min-
utes to complete the calibration process.
