Mk-3 navigation
GPS (Global Positioning System) Receiver
The GPS receiver module of the previous Mk-2 system is integrated into the housing of the
Mk-3 computer, further reducing the complexity and the number of components used in
the system. The receiver is not serviceable.
The GPS receiver is responsible for receiving the satellite signals and providing the vehicle’s
position information to the navigation computer.
Information provided by the GPS receiver to the navigation computer can be displayed in
the service mode
(see workshop hints) but is not typically used in diagnosis.
Gyro (Rotation) Sensor
The navigation computer contains the electronic (piezo) Gyro sensor that detects rotation
(yaw) of the vehicle as a confirmation that the vehicle is turning. The signal provided by the
gyro is a mili-voltage that changes as the vehicle rotates. The navigation computer uses
the input to track the vehicle along the digitized map and display the exact vehicle position.
The signal is available in the sensor test page of the service mode for diagnosis. The
sensor is not a separately serviceable item and does not require calibration.

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”

provides five different test screens:
On-board monitor
Navigation/Graphic element
GPS
Sensor Check
Telematics
To enter the Navigation Service Mode:
Turn the ignition key to position 1 (KL R).
From the Menu screen select “SET”.
Once in the Set screen, press and hold the “MENU” button for 8 seconds.
The Service Mode menu will appear on the display.
Select from the Service Mode menu for navigation specific tests.
Diagnosis
Diagnosis is carried out using Test Modules in the Diagnosis Program as well as on-screen
in the Service mode.The Sensor Check display is intended to be used while test driving the
vehicle. The following pages contain charts with explanations of the Service Mode display.
