2001 740il Navigation System Failure (E38)
Monitor goes gray much with random inteference pattern lines much like a TV that is receiving no signal. However audio system (Radio and CD player) continue to work but every 2 minutes and 40 seconds the sound goes completely dead. I need to push the on/off button once to turn power off, and a second time to turn power on. Upon turning on audio system comes backto normal. Screen stays scrambled.
I have tried disconnecting and then reconnecting the NAV unit, which worked a few times, but that is no longer working. I even tried disconnecting the battery and then reconnecting. The problem still persists. I find it hard to believe that the NAV unit is broken because a lot times the indicator "on" light is lit up orange. I tend to think it is some sort of wired connection issue.
Is there any recall or campaign on the 2001 740il NAV units? Please advise.
