    "Damn, looking at the third pic, my car seems to have trouble displaying Lat/Long too!"

    Looking up the ephemeris data and comparing your sat info screen, we have calculated your exact location.

    Of course, we already knew this because we've been illegally wiretapping your phone lines anyway.

    Smile for the cameras!

    THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKIN ABOUT! This info needs to be combined and highlighted with all other known SERVICE MENU navigation techniques. Please, someone take this and post it in all areas where folks are looking for this. Many folks who are working on this NAV override issue don't have all of the known facts yet. I am seeing this more and more, and trying my best to corner all info. I am attaching a post I sent recently. Please thumb through, and someone with more posting experience please compile in a neater fashion. Thanks so much!

    It seems you know how to access several service menus. I am trying to compile a list and sort of "map out" the waters of the service menus. If you know more than I list here, would you kindly list all ways to access service menus? Bits of info seem to be scattered throughout this site. I am trying my best to compile into one place so one of us can figure it out. And like I said before, I have spoken to someone who does have the info...and they say it is indeed possible with the touchscreen...he just would not divulge the info. Hopefully, one of these programmers will pissed off enough at someone to spill the beans! Until then, lets work together on this.

    So far, the menus I know how to access are:
    1) Hit "Display" button. When yellow lines appear, on the left of your screen, touch just under the top yellow line, and just above lower yellow line, 3 times each starting with the top, alternating.
    2)When in this service menu...touch "menu" button in upper right, and it will bring you to "DIAGNOSIS MENU."
    3)Touch the upper left, and lower right of this screen one time each, and it will bring you into YET ANOTHER SECRET SERVICE MENU. In this menu, the lower right button (I forget what it says...will update later) doesn't seem to do anything when I press it. Hmmmm...when I HOLD it down, however, after about 5 secs it beeps, kinda like the old override button in the pre 06's. I tried driving right afterwards, and it still did not override the system...but something tells me there is more to it.
    I'm just trying to document any and all experimentations. I will copy and paste a previous post with all I know about the SERVICE MENUS. FOLLOWING IS THAT POST.
    Howdy folks. This is my first post not only on this site, but anywhere ever...so please bare with me. I, like many of you, have been trying to defeat the motion sensors that "grey out" the main NAV functions while the car is moving. It took loads of searching, but I found on this site a way to at least hack into the "SERVICE MENU SCREEN."
    Basically, you hit the "display" button from any screen, and when the two yellow lines appear that seperate top from bottom, on the left side of the screen, touch just under the top yellow line...then just above the bottom yellow line. Go back and fourth for a total of 6 times starting with the top (3 top, 3 bottom). For a more detailed description with pics, go to http://priuschat.com/index.php?showtopic=15018
    ****To exit this screen, the guy says you must turn the car on and off again. You simply have to hold down the "display" button for just over 5 seconds.************
    Now, from here, no one has figured it out yet. I have, however, contacted the makers of the software, and they assured me there is a way to do it by simply touching the screen, they just absolutely won't divulge it...yet. It took a lot just to get the guy to admit that...even that he said could have gotten him fired. So our thanks to him for at least saying it is possible.
    Now then, here is my theory. First, go into the service menu screen. It will say "SYSTEM CHECK MODE." Click "MENU" in the upper right corner. The next screen, you will see "DIAGNOSIS MENU." Click on "NAVIGATION CHECK," then click "VEHICLE SENSORS."
    You will see a screen that shows a digital speedometer, voltage meter, a bunch of other things, AND A VERY INTERESTING "RESET" BUTTON. My theory was this: While the car is moving and you are on this screen, you will see the digital speedometer matching of course the one in your dash. I thought, if ...let's say you are driving 25 mph, and hit the reset button...would it be like a digital "tare" button on a digital scale? Meaning, would it make the computer think the new "zero MPH" was now 25mph? Allowing you to use the NAV system for anything under 25mph? Or whatever speed you wanted to set it at? I tried it last night...not knowing if it would work or screw up my whole system. The answer was NEITHER.
    All it did was reset everything EXCEPT the mph, and something called "PULSES." When I held down the reset button instead of just touching it, the pulses kept increasing. I stopped after about 5 seconds...not knowing if I was screwing anything up. (I don't think I was...it all resets everytime you stop the car and turn it on and off again.) I have tried it since while the car is in park, and it seems the pulse meter simply measures any electricity being used in the car. For example, the V (which I assume means voltage) reads while the car is resting at 1.501. When I hit the reset button, it jumps to 1.504, and back when I release it.
    I know this isn't much to go on, but I feel if people know how to hack into that screen, the rest will come easy if we put our heads together. I am also including a link to show new folks how one was able to hack into the pre-2006 service menu screen and successfully override the NAV motion sensors without doing anything except touching invisible buttons in their screen. You can bet, (and like I said, I had someone back it up) it can be done in the 2006's. LETS DO IT EVERYBODY!
    HERE IS THE LINK ON HOW TO DO IT IN THE 2005'S AND BELOW:

    ***********UPDATE*************
    HERE IS MORE GREAT INFO I GOT INTO NAVIGATING THE STRANGE WATERS OF THE SERVICE MENUS. I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT MEANS, BUT IF IT'S ALL IN ONE PLACE, I'M SURE ONE OF US WILL FIGURE IT OUT. ANY EXPERIMENTS SHOULD BE DOCUMENTED FOR ALL TO SEE HERE.
    Touch screen diags, for 2004 or newer
    Use of this information might result in disabling your vehicle, use it at your own risk.
    • Hold Info button while turning the lights on and off 3 times, you can wait for system checks. -OR-
    Press the display button, then press the left upper and lower corners within the display settings box 3 times.
    o If codes exist press LAN Mon, then CHEK to show codes or hold code clr to clear codes.
    • From the initial screen, hold Info button while turning the lights on and off 3 times
    for Model Info Set Up (type) screen. I do not know what these do, use at your own risk.
    o Types are : 690N 740N 836N 783N 620N 808N 480X 900N 382X 290X
    Types are : 901N EMV AVX(ten) AVX(nat) AVX_HV(ten) AVX_HV(nat) 749N
    • Use the Menu button to reach the Diagnosis Menu, press the Display Check and then
    Vehicle Signal Check to show the accessory battery voltage and other information.
    • From the Diagnosis Menu press upper-left then lower-right screen corners for PDM menu.
    o All buttons except for perhaps the Init. BackUp may be safe to use.
    • From PDM screen, hold Info button while turning the lights on and off 3 times for an untitled screen.
    o Here you find a number of options stating success or PGM rqd including TKM, Flicker,
    setting:Tape/MD, setting Address:110H/120H, setting AC:eek:ff/on, and setting Auto:eek:ff/on
    • Hold the physical Display button to exit at any time, or simply power off the car.
    For those of you who understand "postings," as I am a novice, please post this under any category you feel will generate all of the information into one page...I know we are close to an answer!

    Second Post, I've been reading along. I think I found a new screen. On the "Product Diagnostics Menu" there are fourteen buttons; however the bottom right button "Data Logging" won't work. However if you press and hold the bottom left of the screen for 150 to 20 seconds the "Data logging Selection" screen pops up. It has four buttons "Back,"(top right) "Voice Recognition,"(center) "NAVI,"(center-below voice recognition button) and "Selection Release" (lower right). I was able to press "Voice Recognition" and the background of the button turned from black to blue, then I pressed "Selection Release" and the button background turned back to black. Then I pressed "NAVI" and it changed to blue and finally I pressed "Selection Release" and all went back to normal. There is nothing wrong with my navigation system or my car.

    My conclusion is that it is some kind of recorder and that would mean that there should be other screens that would let you see what you have recorded. In other words there should be more screens there that we still have not seen. Good news! Now let’s find that override button.

    I would suggest trying to press on other screens using the 15 to 30 second system in other blank spots to see what you can find. For now I have to get back to work. I’ll play more with my Prius later. Please post when you find it.

    Thank you,

    You touch the upper left then the lower left 3 times to access the screen. If you touch the upper left then the upper right I berlieve you get other options on the same screen.



    So far, the menus I know how to access are:
    1) Hit "Display" button. When yellow lines appear, on the left of your screen, touch just under the top yellow line, and just above lower yellow line, 3 times each starting with the top, alternating.
