Damn enter key!! Just purchased an mk3 on ebay. Hooked it up in the 7 and now all I get is a white screen and the power light isn't lit on the unit. However, it seems as if power is to the unit because the orange lights where the cd is entered is on. I'm also still having the 3minute radio deal which I HATE!! I've been searching a lot of post on here and it states that I may need to load operating software onto the unit and that the power button will only come on if the navigation cd is actually being read. I can't seem to find any good links for operating software on the forum anymore as they all appear dead. If anyone could help with this any input would be appreciated. I want to try this before I assume the unit is dead and try to collect some of my money back.

        • I have no idea. But, given the MKIII is already a brick, it can't hurt to try. (nt) - Brian 2009-03-29 22:01:51 (145 views)
