I wonder if any other Tech owners could confirm whether my problem is a standard feature or unique to me!

 

Amundsen works fine but doesn't seem to sync with MaxiDot at all. Since pairing my phone (Samsung Galaxy S3) all that happens when I switch the engine on is that I get the phone status up on MaxiDot. No amount of rockering the end switches on the wiper stalk (or the stupid button on the bottom of the stalk) will do anything other than navigate around the phone menu.

 

Randomly, if I press Nav on Amundsen enough times, I occasionally get the nav screen up on MaxiDot, but once it's there it again seems to 'lock' and pressing the stalk button/rockers does nothing!

 

There seems no way of getting the trip computer/fuel consumption screen back up again. And no way of getting any radio/media screen up in MaxiDot. It seems as though the introduction of the phone causes a glitch in the workings.

 

If I knock Bluetooth off on my phone, MaxiDot just locks with a "Searching for Phone" message.

 

Anyone with a similar experience?

 

It is a conflict with the cluster and the phone kit

 

try unpluging the radio

 

 

 

I have a button on my mfsw that switches between item and list

Occasionally mine will start on that screen.

To exit the screen I press and hold the up or down button on the rocker switch and after about 2 seconds the maxi dot shows the options available ie MFD

Have you tried pressing and holding the end of the stalk?

Hi Jonro2009, Yes, this morning I was pressing all of them in various combinations for up to about 10 seconds. Will try deleting the phone entirely tonight and then restarting the engine to see what I get then!

Jonro's right, you have to push and hold either end of the rocker button on the stalk and then it'll return the Maxidot menu to where you can choose what's displayed

I've just been out and checked mine and started it in phone mode and was able to change out of the screen by pressing and holding the 'down' end of the rocker.

If your is stuck I would guess there may be a fault. The dealer may be able to update the software for you If available.
