Hello. Can anyone tell me if factory Corvette (2005) Navigation systems can be switched from Corvette to Corvette. My local Chevrolet dealership told me that the one I installed (a factory GM navigation from a 2005 Corvette to my 2005 Corvette) will work only (ONLY) on one Corvette.... the one it came in. The VIN numbers cannot be reprogrammed. Can anyone verify this. It's not that I don't believe them..... well, yeah it is.

First off, WELCOME to CAC! I believe you'll find many helpful and knowledgeable people here to answer your questions.

Now, I don't know 100%, but I think they can be swapped. The guy I bought my 07 from removed the factory Nav system and sold it to another guy who installed it in another car.

Let's hope someone who can verify, one way or the other, come in here and let's us know.

Doing some research I think here's the answer; Go back to your dealer and see if they will follow these instructions to reprogram your NAV system.



This is how to use the tech 2 tool to put the nav unit into relearn mode.

Connect Tech 2 to car and put the car into acc mode.
At the main screen, select diagnostics

At systems selection menu screen, select body

At the vin indent screen select
Appropriate model
Appropriate air conditioning
Nav radio

At the body screen, select nav radio

At the radio screen, select special functions

At the special functions screen, select vin relearn

At the vin relearn screen, the scan tool will display, do you want to clear the radio theft information?

To begin clearing, press the soft touch key on the top right of the scan tool. The Tech 2 will display clearing radio theft in progress.

Once done, press exit on the tech 2 and cycle the ignition.

It's done and the Nav unit will now marry to your car.
