Dash Lights Flashing

Mine is also ver 5.03. I'm calling AI today as well to keep the pressure on. This is not good.

Ver.5.0.3

I have been in touch with A.I. and they are looking into the problem. I?m going to drive out there next week and switch out my X2i for one out of a new batch to see if it helps. I don?t think that the problem is an update for the power train control module. A.I. has been installing these at there local H2 dealership on all year H2?s with no problems reported so far. And when I had my Ver.4 X2i I did not have this problem. I now have it with the newest Ver.5 X2i. I to have been asked to tell you guy not to mod the ground wire as this is not the fix. A.I. will be looking into a programming problem on there end as there could have been a bad batch sent out. As soon as A.I. has a fix you well all be taken care of. At this time this seems to be only an harmless intermittent problem. And should be fixed soon.

Is there any of us that don?t have this problem? What year H2?

And who is having this problem? What year H2? Problem observed?

I too am having the exact same problem. Installed the IPod adapter in my 04 a couple of weeks ago and started seeing flashing lights and beeps every once in a while. I too have version 5.03

I just spoke with Keith in Tech Support at AI. They have certainly gotten the message that a bunch of us are having this same problem with the units.

Per Keith, they have install a bunch of these in Los Angeles for the local Hummer Dealerships, and have called around inquiring if they dealers are seeing this issue. So far no reports of problems.

A.I. thinks there may be a problem with the last batch of 1500 of these units, and they are investigating and trying to solve the issue. Will await their response.

I have disconnected my unit, as electrical malfunctions in a modern automabile may not always be an insignificant nuisance. I am also worried that a bad ipod unit could permanently damage another electrical component in the car.

Even with the unit disconnected, I just noticed that my XM display shows the full song title, but only the FIRST LETTER of the artists name. Per Keith at A.I., the XM may need a "reset" which he said occurs automatically every few weeks, or can be done via request to XM.

I see this ipod deal so many times i got scared and use a fm modulator for my sirius/mp3 unit.

After my power train reprogram it is still happening, surprise surprise. I figured as much but thought I'd give the dealer a chance. I have also uninstalled mine. Is there any word if we should just return to logjam electronics and get a replacement? I know when AI emailed me earlier in the week they suggested I do this. Should we wait or return? I hate having a $200 upgrade that just sits in the garage

As I said earlier I will be going out to A.I. this week to try out a new batch. If this does not work A.I. well be looking at the program in the X2i. My old ver.4 was a little slower and the text was not as good but there were no false dash lights. So this should not be too hard from the programmers at A.I. to find out. At that time you should be able to get you X2i replaced.
