The Nissan Path

Hello all it's good to be here on the forum. I have an '08 Pathfinder LE and have had it since 08. I've wanted to start doing some mods on it and being on a message board is always the best place to get help, I think. I'm on a motorcycle forum and I've done a bunch of work with help from those guys.

Two mods I wanted to look into are the DVD/Navi bypass switch and Navi update.

I want to be able to make entries on the navigation system or have the DVD visible on front screen. I know it's possible, but can't find a good "how to".

Has anyone updated their navigation system on their own? Or does everyone have to pay that $150 or whatever Nissan wants. I think that's such a rip-off.

Well anyway, hope to talk to some of you soon.

Welcome. I think I have a very simialr Pathfinder to you. The only thing mine didn't come with OEM DVD. I had an aftermarket system put in Christmas 2011. I know there are some good write ups about the parking switch grounding to allow you to input information on the navigation. I'll see if I can find them.

Welcome. I hope you can find what you are looking for here. You certainly have a good chance since we have some very knowledgable folks here.

I found a thread that you might find interesting.

thanks, hfrez. yeah, that is the thread that got me started. i'm confused how to wire dpdt switch. it is not making one shred of sense to me. on two connectors i have down are the "blank" one and the ground.

Send KMJSUPERFLY a personal message. I'm sure he would help you.
