Video showing one of the 3 ways to access the Service Menu inside Toyota and Lexus Gen 5 Nav Systems. The service menu includes the GPS Override option. Be safe - only use this when a passenger can safely input addresses or phone numbers. The service menu contains other options that should only be used by a Lexus or Toyota service professional. Do not attempt to access the service menu if you are not a Lexus or Toyota service professional. More information (along with the other 2 ways to enter the Service Menu), visit CarTVs Car Tips section of its website (www.CarTV.com).
I have a 2007 Prius & just got my GPS DVD updated to 11.1. I tried this trick on a couple of screens, but couldn't get it to work.

Oh, this is so helpful. Thank you, worked like a charm on my 06 HiHy V6 my menu has more options than your screen, but i just selected override. Now i just need to find out how to disable the beep on menus.

I've got a 2006 Toyota Highlander with the 2009 Navigation disk. This method doesn't work on it. My friend has a 2009 Toyota Sienna. By default his navigation screen just shows the warning for a second or two, then goes directly to navigation. Is there any way to add that feature to my Highlander?

try doing it with the map showing, press display, and then alternate pressing top left botttom left until the menu comes up. It works on my 2008

this is bogus. doesnt work any more. Lexus disabled this several model releases ago after word got out about how to get to the hidden menu that was for service techs to use to troubleshoot problems.

it's bogus. this hidden method hasn't worked on the last several model years. it was a diagnostic menu for techs to use to trouble shoot problems and when word got out, they disabled this in later model releases.

There is one good feature you have to try it..
If the key at the steering wheel ignition, move it (in between) Acc and ON .. this will help to cool your car.
:D .. hope you like it
