The reason why the Honda CRV in-car map cannot be opened is that the navigation is not activated, it is not the original factory navigation, or the map is missing. Solutions for the Honda CRV in-car map not opening: Most in-car navigation systems are based on the Android system. If there is a power button or a touch-sensitive button resembling a switch around the navigation, you can try turning it off and restarting it. Since car navigation systems generally do not have their own power source, you can try turning off the vehicle and restarting it to check the navigation status. Look around the navigation for a hole slightly larger than a needle's eye. You can try inserting the tip of a paperclip or a SIM card removal tool into this hole for a few seconds to see if the device can restart. Definition of car navigation: Equipped with the GPS global satellite positioning system function, it allows you to know your exact location at any time while driving. Car navigation features automatic voice navigation and optimal path search functions, enabling you to take shortcuts and travel smoothly without obstacles. The integrated office and entertainment functions make your journey relaxed and efficient.
Yesterday, my CRV also encountered the issue of the map not opening, and later I found out it was because the infotainment system hadn't been updated for too long. The car navigation system requires regular updates to the map data package. Like mine, which hadn't been updated for two years, the system version was too old and didn't match the map software. You can first check the system update option in the central control settings and try downloading the latest map package using your phone's hotspot. If that doesn't work, you might need to check the GPS antenna to see if it's being blocked by the roof rack. Also, a sudden power outage can cause the navigation module to freeze. In that case, just force restart the infotainment system by holding the volume button for 10 seconds. Finally, I recommend regularly clearing the infotainment system's cache. I've developed the habit of restarting it once a month, and haven't had any issues since.
