Anyone have a NAV screen blank on startup?

A few times now, after starting and driving, I've noticed my NAV screen is blank...it never activated. At a stoplight, I've turned the car off once, restarted, and it was fine. Anyone with this quirk? Only 1300 miles on the car. No big thing and I'll bring it up at first service, but just curious.

Yep... mine has done that also... maybe 2 or 3 times in about 1.5 years of owning it. I've also gotten a can't read disk error once or twice. Both times turning car on/off fixes the problem.

Mine did it but I found the connector pin in the rear to be loose because I had been tinkering with it. Next time it is "blank" check for loose connections.
