Anyone got Connect Nav+ phone working?

	Hi, I have 2001 Alfa 147 with Connect Nav+. Problem is I bought it second hand and despite purchasing one of those credit card sim adapters and trying O2 and vodafone sims. I can't get the phone to work - or do anything at all! When I select the phone option the screen appears and you can type in a phone number but it doesn't do anything when you try to make the call, also all of the menu options are greyed out and there is no request for a sim or pin as shown in the manual. Also the signal strength icon shows no signal. I still have the previous owners text messages so it worked once! Can someone tell me: Hopefully - how to get it working? Otherwise - does the signal strength icon so any signal if the sim isn't inserted? - i.e. is it an aerial problem or a sim problem? Also - do you have to register with connect to get the phone working or is that just for traffic alerts etc. Could it be that the previous owner's sim was on a contract and the provider 'locked' the phone when the contract expired? - how can I get it 'unlocked'? - tried PUK code but can't get the system to accept it. Anyone????? Dave

	Hi Dave I have a gta with connect nav + when I bought the car the unit was always flickering and sometimes it was telling me that I was in Scandinavia while I was in London so I had it changed (under warranty ) and now works perfectly. in my unit the signal strength icon works even if the sim card is not inserted. as far as registering is concerned I did not register and the unit works fine. like you mentioned that is if you want the traffic alerts or to locate petrol station, restaurants, etc etc I doubt that the unit as a lock system, but the best thing is to call your local dealer for some advice. also how are you inserting the card adaptor? the card should be inserted so that sim faces to the right. Hope this helps Regards Nino "Dave Martin via CarKB.com" <forum@nospam.CarKB.com> wrote in message news:e722719d16f6438ca35c3a1837339425@CarKB.com...> Hi,> I have 2001 Alfa 147 with Connect Nav+.

	Where most mobile phones nowadays are dual band (900/1800Mhz) and some tri-band (900/1800/1900Mhz for USA/Canada) the mobile phone as such will always be able to connect to any network. However, the Connect Nav only works with either a 900 or a 1800Mhz network (don't know which of the 2) I'm quite sure this is the cause of your problem. Just check the frequency of your network and hope you can switch to an alternative network with the other frequency. Otherwise you'll have to change provider completely. -- Ciao from Holland AlfistaGJ (Gert-Jan) Rosso Radicofani GT 2.0JTS (2005) Golden Montreal 1428700 (1973/4) "Dave Martin via CarKB.com" <forum@nospam.CarKB.com> schreef in bericht news:e722719d16f6438ca35c3a1837339425@CarKB.com...> Hi,> I have 2001 Alfa 147 with Connect Nav+.

It lets me go to the Tel screen, where all the menu options are greyed out. When i press the Green connect button, it just says that the option wont work until sim is inserted or pin code input. The sim is in correctly, and there is no way of entering a code. The settings option only allows you to enter your phone number and choose medical info as Manual or Automatic. There are some details of a configured sim on this screen aswell. Does anyone know how to do a master reset of the unit or what the problem may be????? -- Posted using the http://www.autoforumz.com interface, at author's request Articles individually checked for conformance to usenet standards Topic URL: http://www.autoforumz.com/Alfa-Romeo-Connect-Nav-phone-working-ftopict112760.html Visit Topic URL to contact author (reg. req'd).
