I can't get into the map on my pioneer avic d3

The AVIC D3 is not pioneers best. The navigation side of the unit is wearing out. The slider slot in the dvd and other moving parts are wearing down fractionally and that is all it takes for the unit to no longer read the high density map data discs. The map disc is a dual layer 8.5gb disc and it is just about max out. (The disc must be in the unit for the navigation to work.) This is a lot of information and the unit must be able to read every bit of data on the disc or it will error out. All it takes is the fractional wear to mess up the tracking of the laser over the disc and cause problems reading the data on the disc. When the unit spins and spins, it is working hard to read something on the disc and will eventually error out if it can't. Also a fingerprint or tiny spot on the disc will prevent the unit from reading the disc. (Clean with a drop of water and soft cotton cloth even if it looks clean.) The data is information or instructions telling the unit what to do, and if it misses any information it will go crazy and error out. This is very different from music or video/movies that just play and if a spot is on the disc it will just be a fuzzy picture or static from that spot. If you have a disc your system likes, take care of it. I say likes because every disc has fractional differences in data location on the disc. (This is tolerance) That fractional difference could make or break the ability of your unit to read the map disc. So one possible fix is trying different disc to see if your unit will like one of them. Still eventually this also will die. These units are beyond their life cycle and the dvd drive is operating on borrowed time. I hope this helps.

Poineer AvicD3 4300 system in my truck has always worked when I put it in reverse. Now it is not working in reverse but will work in drive and park.

First what system do you have? The D3 or the 4300. You might check to see if you turned on the rearview camera. If so this could be your problem. The rearview camera comes on when you put the vehicle in reverse, turning off anything else until the vehicle is put back into another gear.

Pioneer avic d3

The D3 does not have a good navigation system in it, and because it is old and beyond its life cycle the fractional wear on the drive causes it to have trouble reading discs. Try cleaning the disc with a little water and soft cotton cloth. Do not touch the bottom of the disc after you clean it. If that does not work, then you need a new disc. You can try making a copy of the disc you have. If the program on the disc is good then you just need a copy that your unit will like. To make it simple.

Pioneer system says caution: screen

That is the message you get when you are connected to a backup camera. When you put the car in reverse it will switch automatically if you have the reverse trigger hooked up. you can also switch to the camera while driving and use it as a rear view cam. Some backup cameras actually reverse the image while some do not. If you don't have a backup camera you need to turn that source off and it will stop appearing. I had the same unit in my car with the camera and it was great. Pioneer makes a nice camera but you can find a number of them from other makers that are just as good.

How do i change the time on the clock?

Hi the details are below. Hope it helps I have added a link for the manual at the very bottom, Good luck with it.....
Time Adjusts the systems clock. The time difference (+, -) between the time originally set in your navigation system is set here. You can also select summer time On/Off. > Time settings, (See page 131) Summer Time Choose whether or not to take summer time into account. On: Summer time is taken into account. Off* Summer time is not taken into account...... When the period of summer time comes, or when the summer time ends, your navigation system does not automatically change the summer time setting. > Change the summer time setting, (see Page 131)
To set the time difference, touch "+" or ."-" The time difference between the time originally set in the navigation system (Pacific Standard Time) and the current location of your vehicle is shown. If necessary, adjust the time difference. Touching "+" or "-" changes the time difference display in one-hour increments. The time difference can be set from +3 to -3 hours. If necessary, set to summer time. Daylight Saving Time (DST) is off by default. Touch "Off" to change the time if you are in the daylight saving period. This turns the display below summer time "On". 9 To complete the setting, touch "Back". The map of your surroundings appears. This completes the setup of your navigation system. Chapter 1 explains the basic operation of your navigation system. > To change the time later, (see page 75)
