Video "NOISE" when using Nav2go..or similar
Every Nav module I've used in any car I've had I get video noise on the screen. For those of you who don't know what I mean. I mean lines that either roll up and down the screen or static. Anyone know the resolution to this problem? I bought a $40 inline composite video filter and that didn't do jack poop. I also grounded the nav unit itself to the body of the car..still nothing. Any help would be appreciated

The noise on the screen is caused by the monitor updating. the factory navi has a 15 hertz refresh rate vs. the normal 60 for computer monitors. You will be more prone to be seeing them.

I see the lines on my screen when my backup camera is on..also I have a slim ps2 with the 12volt car adapter so I'm not using a power inverter...any ideas?

Noticeable lines through a 12 volt video display are caused by the actual video source having issues. These issues are caused by low voltage, low current or signal interference. If it's the factory NAV screen's fault you would have video noise on every source including the radio and map screens.
