Navigation - US locked out
I was wondering if anyone had a way to 'unlock' the navigation for the XF in the US. It currently doesn't allow you to enter in new locations while driving. Presumably a safety feature, but it makes it difficult to pull over when driving on the highway to enter in a new address! Any thoughts or way we can remove this lock out? Is there a menu selection or diag menu we can get to?

RE: Navigation - US locked out
Pretty sure there isn't going to be an easy way to unlock the NAV functions like type in a hidden code or anything, this topic has floated around boards for several years without any resolution that was quick and painless. I did notice on the schematic for my car during an audio upgrade, that there is a speed sensor wire that goes from the nav control module to the stereo head unit to the instrument cluster. Perhaps, if that isn't connected at all, the nav will think that the car is not moving...or it may not. I haven't experimented with it to find out. Don't know about the XF wiring charts though, it may be more complex that just that.
