I was hoping to find an answer to this problem. I need my NAV everyday and it is very annoying to have to pull over to put in an address. I wholeheartedly agree that the passenger could be entering the data as well. Anyway, I stopped by the dealer today and was told there is a way to get around it but the vendor would not supply that info. ANYBODY Know?

Replying to: exitstageleft (May 01, 2009 3:21 pm) There are a couple of ways to accomplish this I think. If you just want to unlock the features that are not available while moving you can add a switch into the wire harness that feeds the NAV system. The NAV system takes a feed from the Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS?) and you can put in a switch that momentarily bypasses this input making the NAV think the vehicle is not moving. Several/many owners are starting to do this. Google acadiaforum or enclaveforum and you can search for how to do it. It seems pretty straight forward.   The other option is a commercially available product. I think it is called Lockpick. I think it adds much more functionality at a much higher cost but I can not comment directly. Also check out the forums above for info.   Good luck.

Replying to: zman3 (May 02, 2009 4:59 am) I couldn't find any instructions or even much discussion on acadiaforum. all I found on enclave froum was a place to (essentially) sign a petition to register my complaint. No where did I even find a hint of a "how to" discussion. Do you have any links you could offer? Replies to this message: zman3 (May 14, 2009 5:38 pm)
