Comand Nav Functions Displayed In Instrument Cluster
WHAT IS THE CORRECT INFORMATION? DO THE NAV MENUS SHOW IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER (SPEDO) OR NOT? My Instrument Cluster does not display the NAV menus. MBUSA position is that no NAV data is displayed in the instrument cluster. The dealer hooked up StarDiag and made sure everything is activated. Everything shows in the IC (TV, AUX, FM, CD, ETC.) except NAV.
Some other threads seem to indicate that the instrument cluster (if activated) would show the NAV functions. WHO IS RIGHT...WHO IS WRONG?

Oh, and on one of my cars, they tried to tell me that my car didn't have the nav info in the cluster. When I insisted, they finally looked in StarDiag and did it.

Does a 2000 S500 have the capability of displaying NAV options in the instrument cluster?
Thanks

Richard, as replied in other forums as well...YES, your instrument cluster DOES have the ability to display the nav menu and your dealer IS able to do that for you within 10 minutes if they just have at least 1 experienced EDUCATED tech!!!

Steve, does my 2000 S class allow this? If so, can you tell me what needs to be done to activate it?
Thanks

Instrument Cluster Display
I am taking the car back to the dealer Monday. We will see what they say about NAV display in IC.

IC Display
The lead tech for the dealer knew how to program it and now everything also displays through the IC (even the TV menus).

Question for Steve?
Steve, can you shed any light on how to program the IC to show nav instructions on a 2000 S500? Thanks, as always.

What I did is...
Show the service advisor the owner's menu on IC section. In the menu, it has all the avaliable menu in the IC and Nav is one of them.
Ps. not sure about the S-class but you can take a look.

bump.
Steve, can you provide any info on what needs to be done to activate this feature? (What sections of what programs in the Star diagnosis system)
Thanks
