Where can I find a SatNav disc for a 2005 CR-V SE Executive?

Looking to

1> Remove the error message for tne screen.

2> Get a working SatNav for the car.

 

Can find them on eBay but none of them state that theyr'e suitable for the 2005 CR-V,

and asking the sellers a question (I've messaged three of them) gets me no reply at all.

 

Would be most grateful fo a reply.

Common problem. I have a 2006 and the unit works fine apart from Sat Nav which doesnt work and displays the disc reading error. At first, not knowing much about the car, I thought cleaning the unit and disc might fix it, but it didnt. Then I started reading about the fault from other owners and discovered that people have tried using other discs with no luck. The general opinion is forget trying to fix the problem, even if you could get it working the data is completely out of date. Advice is to buy a modern, portable Sat Nav unit, which is a fairly cheap solution and wouild be far better in its data content and operation. Or, take the unit out and replace it with a complete new modern unit, which is a costly option. I now only use the unit to listen to the radio and have a screen mounted Garmin Sat Nav, sometimes even using my smart phone in a suction mount and one of the many Map Apps.

As above, if its complaining about a disk error its highly unlikley to be the disk, its the alpine head unit thats fitted as stock, the DVD lens unit fails.

 

I ripped mine out and fitted a new Sony head unit with apple car play... much better.

Hi Kev, would you care to share the name and model of that Sony radio you replaced and does it have a CD player? 

It's a radio minefield out there and on eBay you will find the original Honda radio with SatNav and CD player as well as without, some it seems accessible from a slide down screen and many without at all. What's obvious is there are two types of software, one from a CD or DVD, the other available on an App, which is only available on some models with Android. 

I did see an advert on eBay a few days ago which displayed a Honda radio with a disc about to be inserted. The disc has up to date maps on it but presumably only if you have a radio that can read the data.
