    Okay, so figured out how to put my head unit on my base model PiP into diagnostic mode. Question... can we do anything in diagnostic mode? I can't disable the reverse beep from this window... is there anything else worthwhile I can do in this mode? Beside accidentally deleting all my destinations that is.

    Well...uhhmmm....errrrr.. Let me dig that up.

    I've been searching the web and cannot find how I did it.. I remember you turn the vehicle on with your foot off the brake to put it in accessory mode, press some button and flip the lights on and off three times.

    But to be honest with you, there is really nothing on the screens. Useless info.

    iPad ? HD

    To go into diagnostics mode
    1. Press the setup button
    2. press and hold
    (While holding the button)
    3. Rotate the exterior light switch completely 4-6 time (turn off the headlights and drls and on) cycle that switch 4-7 times I'm sorry if it wasn't clear

    Ok, I gave it a shot and this is what I did,
    put the car in ready mode,
    pressed and held the set-up button,
    turned the headlight switch all the way on and off three times,
    the display went into diagnostics mode.
