KPTechnologies Nav Interface Module (NI35)
I installed the module a couple of days ago. I am able to access the blocked features on the nav/media/phone, BUT, the OK screen keeps coming out every time I restart the car! I thought this module was also supposed to take care of the OK screen. First thing I thought was that I hadnt soldered the two wires correctly, so I took it to a professional. Still dissapointed cause I had the same results. Then I switched the module modes, still same. Can someone tell me what might be the problem or is this normal operation?
Thanks, Dan

The "auto OK" feature is on a timer. So unless you have the nav set to start up when the car starts it doesn't work. For instance, if the car starts up with the list of radio presets showing, the module will still hit the ok button X number of seconds after the car starts. Then when you switch over to nav, the ok screen will still pop up. Hope that makes sense.

As already mentioned if the system doesn't start up on the navi screen then it won't process the "OK" button.

It must suck to live more than 15 minutes away from Kevin... 
PS: Kevin, I'm just waiting until it snows to modify my headlights, so as soon as I get them back and installed I'll let you know. You still interested in putting together the module to turn on the headlights with the keyfob unlock command?

I initially adjusted the timer but I guess I just need to add more time. The infiniti logo does come show up at every start. Before turning off my car the nav is usually on, so i dont have to worry about other stuff being on the screen to much. I'll re-adjust tomorrow, I'll let you guys know how it went. As to the install of the module and relay that wasn't difficult at all. In a scale of 1-10 (10 being diffcult), I would rate it a 2-3. My only problem was my soldering. Since i had my car dimembered, that was the perfect time to add a dvd player in the glove compartment. My wife had almost had a heart attact when I told her I was going to drill some holes so I could hide the wires. I drilled a dime sized hole under the a/v input/output and another one in the bottom left part of the Glove compartment. I wired the remote sensor to the pass. side air vent next to the screen. Everything looked and worked perfect, now I just need to adjust the time on the module. I'll see if I can post some pics later.

I just picked up a lightly used navigation control board so that we can start offering swaps - basically we will complete the soldering and mail the customer the control board. The customer will then send us their control back so we can continue the cycle. Hopefully this little program will get more people interesting in installing this module!
