Righto off to check my speed pluse,

Just to double check - which colour wire is the speed pluse in the main loom, I think its white with a black trace but not sure as not in the car to look

sounds about right.... ....or is that reverse sensor?

does the unit claim you are moving, but just not in right area? If so, use the Car Location option under settings Thumbs Up!

oh and the map disk is so old it's doesnt seem to have Holyhead on it... would also be causing a problem ?

no speed pulse then - there are 6 wires you need to connect in passenger kick panel, most being power and illumination (to dim display when lights on). but you also need reverse and speed...
