Default 2008 T&C navigation problems.

I've had the van for a year and haven't had a problem until the other day. The navigation now says "Navigation is being activated" whenever I drive. Any ideas on how I can fix it?

A year .. .. 52 weeks ? I've no idea but maybe yours is a subscription thing - as in - owners must have a valid subscription for it to work, if not it goes off after the first 52 weeks taster.

Don't think that is the problem. I bought the van used about 15 months ago at an auction. I never paid for the navigation. I would think if I needed to renew a subscription there would be some sort of prompt.

- ok !

Look for this on this site hope it helps :

Module Failure� message displays when trying to use satellite mode. Usually caused by an electrical short in the SDAR antenna, not the radio. This appears to be most common on Durango and Aspen. The SDAR antenna cable is usually the source of the problem. Check behind Driver's A-Pillar trim for possible pinched antenna cable and or loose and or bent pin at the back of the radio. "Module failure" message does not indicate the need to replace the radio.

"Navigation is being activated" message may appear momentarily when the radio is first turned on and in the navigation mode. This is normal while GPS satellites are being located. If message does not go away after driving on main roads for a few minutes, push the Menu button on the radio and select "System Set Up", and then "System Info". Check for "Tag Not Found" or "Not applicable" messages described below.
