HELP Installing OEM Nav & replacing 6 disc... - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

glomax79 · 08-16-2006, 11:07 PM

Ok I recently got a 07 Camry SE without NAV and many of you have seen the 2 OEM NAV systems that OEMvalue sold on ebay. I just bought one of them and went to install it tonight and all the plugs fit but one.

The stereo and nav all come on and work fine. The only thing that didn't work was the microphone for the bluetooth and nav. The plug is different from one unit to the other. I think this should be an easy fix for an audio shop but I wanted to see if anyone has any suggestions. I really really want this to work.

Please help! Any advise would be appreciated...

PS: All the dealerships and toyota corporate said this would not work however everything but the mic works...seems to me they are misleading people....I was told it would cost $9000 to install all new wiring harnesses to make OEM nav work in my JBL stocked system.

You need to look this up in the service manual. It's in 2 different sections and shows all plugs, pins and wire colors.

Do you have it or can I email the pdfs to you?

I just downloaded the pdfs for the AV and NAV. I just don't really know what I'm looking at. I assume if I take this to an audio shop they could interpet it and make it work?

I would hope so.

Congrats on your work so far.

wow, can't believe you spend $2200 on the nav

when its value is 1200. u should of wait longer to price to drop or get after market

glomax79 · 08-17-2006, 06:36 AM

Well there is a long story behind why I paid $2200. I'll try and sum it up. My dealer sold me my 07 SE with NAV and told me the OEM could be installed at the port. I have now been waiting 4 months. My dealer continues to drag this out by promising to make it right now knowing that OEM isn't avaiable to them. They wanted to put in some aftermarket system and I don't want aftermarket no matter how much better it might be as I think the stock just looks better. It all matches...I'm a girl...I have to match things. So basicly I am picking up a check for $2500 from my dealer this weekend to "make it right" so the NAV system didn't really cost me that much...I paid them $1200 for the NAV 'upgrade'. So now I have $300 incase I need it for installation.

All worked out hopefully.

The navs receiver is all in one now. they no longer have the extra part that goes in the trunk or glove box.

Are you going to sell your JBL system?

erasat · 08-17-2006, 08:06 PM

OK you can try going to this link directly and download the 8.1 MB Navigation PDF File, I have seen it and it looks very complete, it also gives you harness information and ALL the Navigation Installation and settings:

http://rapidshare.de/files/23266518/Navigation.pdf.html

Maybe you will find what you look in there.

Just for your reference, if you didn't know about it, use this link for any future Camry 2007 Manual or Instruction.

Erasat thank you for those links. I think the info in that will help get it done. I am acutally taking it to a very good audio shop here and they are putting it all in for me for $50. The hardest part is just making that one plug for the mic work. Shouldn't be to hard.

I don't know if I'm going to sell my JBL 6 disc system or not yet. I'm sure I will let you all know first if I do decide to.

Wish me luck tomorrow on the installation!

I saw the unit for sale on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2007-...QQcmdZViewItem
now were do you insert the cd's??? I don't see any opening for the cd...

glomax79 · 08-17-2006, 09:54 PM

the screen folds down and there are 2 slots. One for the 4 disc changer and 1 for the NAV dvd

El Tano · 08-17-2006, 10:06 PM

cool, thanks

The Navi you bought from OEM Value actually supports two different microphones and depending on which one you connect is how it will behave. the two microphones have very different characteristics (including resistance) and so I am not sure if you will be able to handle this with just re-wiring the harnesses to match. Might be able to, I'm just not certain... but for sure there are two different mics - the one coming factory in the 07 Camry is different than the one in the 06... (in most cases - mid-production change I think)
