You will probably lose some functionality with an aftermarket radio. There are interface wiring adapters that will allow installation without needing to cut the vehicle's wires (highly recommended) and restore some functions (such as chime notifications) but in all likelihood - not everything. Crutchfield has some good info on what fits / works with different vehicles.

    steve. want to use 2005 sts nav radio

  • Steve Feb 03, 2015

    Hi Bryan - the best possible amswer on this will be at your caddy dealer. There are various models of radios that appear the same but are very different (some with Bose sound, etc.). By providing the the model number or the radio you want to installalong with your vehicle information, they should be able to tell you if it is doable and how much of the vehicle's non-radio mounted controls will work with it. Good luck!

How do I get nav and radio screen to work it says theft lock

If your 2005 Cadillac STS is displaying "TheftLock" on the navigation and radio screen after replacing the battery, it means that the anti-theft system has been activated. Here are the steps you can take to unlock the system:
1. Turn the ignition key to the "On" position. Don't start the car, just turn the key to "On" position.
2. Wait for the "TheftLock" message to disappear from the navigation and radio screen. This may take up to 10 minutes.
3. Press and hold the "1" and "4" buttons on the radio simultaneously for several seconds until "000" appears on the screen.
4. Use the "TUNE" knob to enter the code that was provided with the vehicle's owner's manual. If you don't have the code, you will need to contact a Cadillac dealership or a certified mechanic to retrieve it for you.
5. Once you entered the correct code, press the "AM/FM" button to unlock the radio and navigation system.

If all doesn't work, it's time to contact a Cadillac dealership or a certified mechanic to help you sort it out.

Nav radio won't turn on, 2007 cadillac STS

I am afraid that you are out of luck. Did you check the fuse. The only other person would be the dealer or you may find another unit in the salvage yard.

2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Navigation Issue The

Look on ebay for an REC Joystick replacement. In the mean time you can hold down the middle button on the right side of the back of the steering wheel, where you can control the radio features. When you hold this button down, a little red wheel symbol appears on the navigation screen which means you can control the navigation system from the steering wheel controls. This works for simple tasks until you get the replacement joystick. They are about $30 and take about an hour to install.

I have a 2005 S-type R with the nav system. I

That means that your car wasn't fitted with bluetooth module from factory. You can purchase at dealer but you're talking around $1k and from what I hear isn't the greatest.

I got a visor mounted blue tooth speaker from Motorola that works great in my 2005 S-Type.
