Zumo User Forums

Hi guys, while connected to Wi-fi screen show colors and perfect, after disconnection - black and white... . Navi 6 updated, new map installed, rebooted. 2 BMW centers do not know why and what to do. Please help.

What theme do you have selected ?

Settings - Map & Vehicle - Map theme. (I think it will be)


Or it might be the display settings - which some models retain separately : when they are connected to power they are 100% bright, when not, they will dim as low as 10%

Map mode: Journey
Map style: Automatic

Thanks for the images.
Its not just the colours, the map is presented differently.

Did you check which theme was active for both screens. I cant see that is would change, but I don't mind clutching at straws.
Stumped. Completely.

That is a new one! I have never seen or heard of that one before

How old is the unit?

This is ConnectedRide Navigator 6 month. Problem start from the beginning. Looks like i need to buy cellular sim card...

Your heading has changed - which might reveal why we are stumped.

My understanding was that the BMW Nav 6 was based on the Zumo 595. I also read that BMW parted ways from Garmin after that point.

The ConnectedNavigator appears to be a very different beast from the Garmins. I have no experience with it at all.


There are discussion on a BMW forum - eg https://www.advrider.com/f/threads/bmw- ... r.1671763/. You may have to register (free). You might get a more informed response from there. But keep tuned in here as there are a few AdvRider members that use our pages to glean information about the Nav5 and Nav6.

@lkraus - have you seen anything that might help ?

Thank u. Will try other forums...
