Avic n1 says mechanism error and wont take any

If the Avic was installed in a tight housing it will put pressure on the sliding mechanism for the screen. Its as if you put pressure down on the top of the housing, it wont slide out. These Avics and other players are sensitive to pressure, so tell an installer or someone with experience to relieve the pressure of the pioneer avic housing. If that doesnt do it then it is probably a mechanical problem or small electrical issue. Sometimes a faulty ground or weak power connection will cause this, but i am sure it has to do with pressure on the housing.

Good luck.

Hi,

Did you try reseting your unit?

CLEAN DRIVE WITH A DISC CLEANER. ALSO TRY A MASTER RESET. FOUND ON FRONT PANEL SMALL HOLE FOR A PAPER CLIP.

YOU NEED THE BRAIN UNIT...ITS ABOUT $110 ON EBAY

If the battery was recharged by someone who accidenly reversed the leads then it can kill a radio, usually blows radio fuse first tho. Im affraid the unit needs repair from what youre saying.

You have to isolate yellow-black cabel. This cabel was in contact with earth and it was the reason, why you have Mute on the display.

We can fix all AVIC N1 N2 N3 Problems at an affordable rate.

If your error message is reading "insert appropriate disk" or "inappropriate disk inserted" than I have the solution. Can you just let me know exactly what the message is?

Hi jamie,
It seems you have opened the top cover of your unit. Now take a dry cotton bud clean the roller which you can find right in front. Please do not use any liquid to clean the same.
Please cast your vote for me if this solve your problem.

Is it always blank? Or only when trying to watch a DVD? What version discs are running?
