You typically need to ground the parking brake wire to make the nav think you're parked.

My installer installed a switch that somehow interrupted the speed sensor on the wheels. It made the computer think the truck wasn?t rolling.

Technically you can still use the GPS without flipping it back but it can?t lock onto the signal (GPS) to identify your location precisely until you flip it back.

Out of all the vehicles I have ever owned with nav, the one in the H2 is the absolute worst. It?s freakin? archaic and not user friendly. It takes so long to respond to inputting the alphabet, I?d forget where the hell I wanted to go.

God I hate that thing... (but at least I know no one will steal the POS)

Some installers won't put those in any more. The AVIC I used previously needed the parking brake cable grounded and my installer "showed" me how to do it, but wouldn't do it for me.
