Hello

I have a problem with my 06 SC. The multimedia system takes forever to start up.

Sometimes it is very quick. other times it takes up to 10 minutes. Always blinking 4x.

I checked the Modules I can see. No water ingress at the back. Its bone dry.

Having a newer Bluetooth Modul,but it was never a problem.

What would you advise to check?

Fuses which are related to NAV etc I checked too.


regards

Someone is bound to say it so I'll go first , have you checked your battery voltage ? I have no other ideas but always the first place to start with any thing not running quite right . 2008 MY Supercharged

the battery is fine. (checked by the dealer) and their is no power consumption when the car is shut down.

will check again tomorrow.

Sometimes it starts in 5 sec and other times it takes like 15min to start.

Had the Starter replaced recently,it works better now,but still it is very annoying.

How much should the battery be after the car was parked for 6 hours? (once i had readings under 11 V)

Maybe I should do the so called hard reset?

I cant see problems with the modules,as they work fine if they started up.

Should not drop as low as 11v at rest might be if started and switched off without chance to replenish though.
Should be a shade over 14 volts when running, with the battery showing about 12.7v when fully charged.

What voltage are you getting when the engine is running right after starting the car? There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

Seems okay

mhh yeah I will try that. battery was dissconected for the alternator but I dont think that the dealer put the 2 cables together to do the reset.

right now the problem is fixxed. (I did the battery procedure and hold the two clamps together)

lets see if its a permanent fix.
