Hello!

I started a new project..

I have bougt i RTI Navigation system from å wrecked xc70.

I think the RTI System is very cool and i want to install it into an older VW Passat.

Dont ask me how i will make it fit..

I need som information about the RTI Navigation system:

1. Is it possible to run the RTI system whithout can bus signal??

2. Anyone know were to get a service manual or som other kind of informatian about the RTI system??



Hope anyone can help me, even i know many of you dont like the ide of puting a VOLVO product into a VW, but i think the VW fans likes it less if you know what i mean..

You are in the wrong place to get this information.

You should try on a Volvo specific forum, and perhaps a VW specific forum.

The reason why i'm postin in this forum is becouse i want to use the RTI system to creat me very own CARPUTER!!

I have alsow postet at a Volvo forum but i thought i could try here as well..



Anyone knows were to get service manual??

I'm sorry, you bought a complete NAV system to convert to a carputer. Carputers are about converting computers into NAV systems, not the other way around.

How do you plan on accomplishing this?

Like I said, you are in the wrong place.

I have never seen the item mentioned on this forum, and I have been here a while and looked at LOTS of threads.

Any info you get from here will be based on searches that you should have, if not already, done.

This site is not for OEM navigation units, nor the modification of such units. While for a minute you piquesd my interest in making the unit into a carputer, I find it hard to believe you actually plan to do that because you asked about using the unit with out the can bus. That should not matter if you are making the unit into a carputer. First, a carputer will work independent of the CAN bus, and if you will be modding the unit to work as a carputer, the unit won't care if the CAN is present.

Then, to top it off, when I ask about your plans, you are like, "I have a good plan, trust me"

Yeap, such a good plan that before you bought the unit, you did research to figure out what the unit needed to work, and what was involved in modding it. If you truly were doing something to mod the unit, I think you would have been more forthcoming about your super duper plans.

At this point, I really think that you have this thing and you have no idea what to do with it, or how, if at all, it will work.

Like I suggested, head over to the Volvo boards, as that is your best place to find information for your "CARPUTER" mod.

You are talking to me like i'm a stupid kid man...

Of course i have been googling after information.
I tought i should try to ask all the people at this forum if they knew anything more. Maybe someone had a CD whith servicemanuals or something.

The reson why i answered your question whith "I have a good plan, trust me" was because i did'nt want to write all about my plan at this moment.

But if it is importen i can tell you some of it..

The CanBus is NOT relativ to the CARPUTER issue.
The CanBus is only used to controll the navigation DVD player.

But in the VOLVO RTI system it is a LCD display which i can connect a extarnal video sourch such as VGA signal from a computer.

I want to buy a touch panel and try to fit it to the RTI display.

Got it?
