Default Help! Nav unit won't turn on

The whole nav/xm/cd unit won't turn on. It's just a black screen. Is there a particular fuse for this unit and where is it located? I'd rather not take it into the dealer if it's something simple. Thanks alot guys.

Yeah the disc is in there however I can't open it because the eject button does nothing.

He's saying that there's NO power to the unit.
Check the fuse that protects the head unit. Not sure where it is but check your owners manual.

Other than the fuse, disconnect the battery for about 30 seconds and reconnect. This will force the NAV to reboot. Fuse would probably do the same thing.
