I was showing off my new RL to my dad this weekend and I got out of the car to let him in to drive. The car showed a message about no keyfob in the car but I see no way to make this message go away, the only options are to listen to the message or find an Acura dealer.
Any clue how to disable this message in the future and/or how to delete the message currently stored?
TIA,
Jon

So are you saying that you intended for your dad to take the RL out for a spin alone, with you and the key fob staying at home? If so why? Couldn't you just give him the fob?

I had the fob in my pocket, when I got out of the drivers seat to let him take over after showing him all the whiz bang features, the message popped up about the fob not being in the car. I guess I left the perimiter the car wants the fob to remain in. Now I can't get the message deleted.

Bajanjack,
Try holding the 3 buttons longer, this has worked for everyone who has tried it....let us know if this fixes it for you.
...you can even see the satellite locations if you have the guts to select other options in the diagnostic menu![Smile](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)

Pete & Earl.....thanks!!!! The "5 seconds" did the trick and I deleted the messages...I'm a happy man!.....The last thing left to deal with is the phantom locking of my doors which now happens after I got the updates.....

Be warned, however, that it will require you to input your Nav and Radio codes, so have them ready before you do this.
Also when you do the Nav, be in an open area, i.e., not the garage, where the car can access the GPS satellite. You will get a screen that says it may take 10 minutes to reset the system while the system is resetting. It will reset. Once it does, your good to go.

Unless somebody has some input, its off to the dealer.......this is very interesting..
I have also refreshed the NAV DVD. Also, I am using the latest DVD NAV 2006 edition, White label, I guess its v4.31 or something.
