Dash Lights Flashing

[LV_H2]

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.

I uninstalled my Nucleus X2i last week. No more flashing lights.

I have returned both of mine. (I never got to install the second one in my wife's 2005 H2).

Does anyone know when the GM PAL (Personal Audio Link) is coming out? They made a big announcement in August 2006, but I haven't seen or heard a word since.

The other option is to see if the Peripheral Electronics unit is "identical" or just similar, but I don't think I have the stomach for it.

Okay. Took a long trip to Hot Springs. Lights flashed on the trail at Super Lift and freaked me out. I unplugged my IPod and the flashing stopped. I think it must have something to do with the charging system that goes through the unit. I think when the iPod charges it draws too much current and causes the battery to work harder and that causes the lights to flash.

Anyone heard anything from AI yet?????
