hi. I have a problem with my dvd sat nav starting up. I have a mitsubishi shogun elegance 2004 when I start the sat nav in goes to a screen where it says dvd version is being updated then the screen goes blank and starts the same procedure all over again!!!!!!!! Can anyone help me ?

You probably need the boot disk to start-up and then it can run with the normal one. It should come up with a message asking for although our versions are in Japanese.

cheers mate. Please could you tell me where i can get the boot disk from as i don't think i got it when i bought the car.thanks


p.s i bought the car for the mitsubishi main dealer.

We had a site in NZ which offered the boot disk and any run disks you required for free (can be downoaded as an ISC) but I think that they ran into problems with the server and haven't been on-line for some months. I will list below as you may be able to send an email to inquire about the system.

Other than that you are at the mercy of the local friendly Mitsi dealer. Some I have heard charge an exhorbant fee just to start the system back up. From the stories I've heard across the globe few dealres know what they are doing when it comes to this system and charge far to much for that service.

Thanks a lot mate for all your help. The website doesn't work so i guess i'll have to go to the main dealer.

jst got car back from dealers they say i need a new unit at a cost of 1624+ VAT wot a rip off as all they have done is put another dsk in and check it. I have been advised by an independant person to jst get a disk cleaner and maybe clean the lens.

Hi I am Italian I also have a pajero "Montero" v60 DID 3.2 with DVD NAVI MP-7500 also here in Italy all the owners of this NAVI, have the same problem, but the person from Mitsubishi Italia, has informed us that the problem is an American satellite retire, and the system navi tries to communicate with this satellite, but they have informed us that the problem will be resolved with an updating software, I put you the link of the discussion it is in Italian, I hope can be you useful, you excuse for my English.

hi matey, I don't think that it is a satellite issue, if it was I think the dealer should have told me, also the dealer said that he tried a dvd rom that works in a different car but even that wouldn't work in my car. Again he put it down to the actual dvd unit. Thanks for the post anyway. :liebe011:

HEY GUESS WHAT??? Mitsubishi motors rang me today and they said that their is nothing wrong with my sat nav unit. There is an update available which my main dealer should have informed me about BUT DIDN'T!!!!!!! Now I will have 2 go back 2 the dealer for this update. WHY WASN'T I TOLD THIS IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :(

Ask them when you go there. I think dealers are as much in the dark with the MMCS as the rest of us. Everytime I try and talk to a dealer about mine all I get is a blank look on thier face.

Hi Guys, is this true? My MP-7500 stopped working and we were told by Alpine, and others, that it is a satellite issue which is causes the startup process to corrupt. Contacted several Mitsubish dealers who played dumb, went to a specialist and he told me that it is a satellite issue.

Contacted Mistubish group who said take the car to a dealer, which we did. They told us it is pooped and that we need a new sat nav at £1600

So what is the real answer as there are NO upgrades to an MP-7500.

Can I just install an Alpine with a conversion cable?

Hi M8, In Italy arrived the upgrade for NAVI MP-7500, should be 5 minutes to make it work "is normal upgrade by software",call your dealer for this update in Italy rif. is "Tecnica Mitsubishi n° 12/08 date 12.05.2008". Do not spend more money.
Ciao.

hi. is it possible 4 me 2 get this update in uk???????????????????????

Just discovered this message board. Have similar problem and same useless response from local Mitsubishi agent who advise buy a new system. I shall do battle with Mitsubishi direct tomorrow as clearly there is a software issue that they should be duty bound to solve. Hopefully will be able to then post a response

Hello, I own a 2001 Mitsubishi Pajero 3.2DID with a central screen and NAVI system from AISIN. Unfortunately there is no map for my country (Greece). The NAVI itself seems locked to the specific map-DVD. I thought of removing the whole navi under the drivers seat and put a destinator-based GPS system with an AV output connector (they are remote controlled and cost ~300Euro). Does anybody know how can I connect an external composite video signal (i.e from a DVD player) to the mitsubishi screen? The display connector on the AISIN NAVI has a lot of pins (possible a strange RGB connector?). Thanks in advance
