2005 RL nav screen all pink-now what
I have a 2005 RL and the other morning the navi screen turned pink, it was 45 outside, a few times it flickered,,,thought after it warmed up it would turn back but it has not,, it has been in the 80's. Is the screen toast??

45 is not cold, and I'm even from Texas. (You aren't talking Kelvin; are you?) Commercial electronics are usually rated to 0 degrees C. Automotive electronics should be rated to -40 degrees C.
You either have a bad connection, a bad signal source, or a bad screen. My guess is that the green level has been lost in one of those places.

Flygirlpainter, were you ever able to resolve the issue? I have the same problem. I purchased a replacement display monitor on ebay and that did not fix the problem. I followed the suggestion on this thread to access the diagnostic menu and when testing the colors, green is definitely missing. There is no aftermarket gear inline. Any thoughts from the experts out there? I'm thinking I may unplug and re-plug all the connections a few times, or wiggle them to see if something is loose.

Hmmm, pink NAV screen? I heard somewhere that means the car was used for a while by a Mary Kay sales rep.

UPDATE! I just had time to change my screen from the one I took off from junk yard, still have same issue. I guess it's not LCD though, what is next part to check? Maybe bad head unit?
