Having the same problem. Dealer says Audio video control unit bad. Had car on for a couple of hours and NAVI starts working then turn car off and same symptoms.

Here's a update... After the main vehicle battery died, I hooked up a new battery and to my surprise, the Navigation Unit worked again. 2 months later, the nav screen goes blank again, I unhook the battery, reconnect the battery, and presto, the Nav Unit comes back up normally. So I've gone about 4 months on 2 "hard reboots" of the system. Don't know if this a workaround for everybody, but give it a try.

#17 of 23 Upgrade GPS Software on 2006 Pathfinder by logan75cars

I bought my Pathfinder used and would like to upgrade the software on the GPS. Is this an over the counter product or will Nissan have the upgrade?

I have an 08 pathfinder without the navigation built in. I do have the screen with backup camera that was factory. Is there a GPS receiver I can add on so I can have navigation on my factory indash screen? Any help would be greatly appreciated . Thanks

Did you ever find a nav screen for your 2008 pathfinder? I am in the same boat right now.

#21 of 23 2006 Pathfinder Display Control "Joystick" by rbinaz

We have a 2006 Pathfinder LE with navigation. It worked great up to about 6 months ago when the little joystick used to enter data stopped working in the down position. It makes it all but impossible to use the nav system because you can't maneuver around the screen to enter data. I've been looking for a replacement circuit board (used), but so far no luck. The service departments at two Nissan dealerships didn't want to touch it and suggested I'd be better off getting a new aftermarket system ($$). Has anyone had a similar problem that they were able to resolve?

You can replace the control unit or if you can use a soldering iron you can replace the joystick for arround $10 theres a how to guide on Nissan-navara.net.
