Just taken delivery of a new Toyota Fortuner, it has built in Sat Nav unit Toyota Part # PZ072-00016 to 00019

It has the Map Data on a SD Card, It is proving difficult and time consuming to obtain this data in the English version so i have been trying to make my own

I am guessing the software is locked to the SD card and not the Sat Nav unit ?

First off i tried to just copy the SD card to another to see if that would work but no Joy, the main files on the original sd card are:

1st level is the GARMIN Folder and PANA10SIG.psi file

2nd Level in the GARMIN Folder: Attached Picture

I see there is a file named gmapprom.unl which i assume is the SD card unlock or Software unlock ?

I found the SD id number and used this to create a SD card unlock number for the SD card i copied to, but no sucess the unit would not read the SD card ?

Any help from you tech guys out there, all i want to do is change the Thai version to English ?

There are 3 different images though not just one ?

gmapbmap.img

gmapprom.img

gmaptz.img

Any thoughtsd on what else to try as getting fed up with Toyota and no one knowing anything ?

Cheers

gmapbmap.img = basemap

gmapprom.img = Thailand Streep Map

gmaptz.img = dunno

gmapprom.unl = Thailand Street Map unlock code.

sw.unl = software unlock key

You have to replace the current gmapprom.img (Thai version) with the English version.

Furthermore you have to enter the unlock key of your English version map into the gmapprom.unl file.You can make a new file or edit it. The program to do this is Windows Notepad. Keep in mind that you save the file with the extension UNL and not with TXT.

I did this whole ritual for my Kenwood DNX7340 BT Garmin.

I got my Fortuner navi in march 2010, but there is no SD card in that one. It called B9014 and includes both english and thai language

May be they have installed a new vesion after that

I'd guess that the ESRI unlock code would be the same for both Thai and English language files of the same version map (9.0,10.0,10.1 etc). Just replace the current Thai language map file gmapprom.img (122,756 KB) with the English map file from the same version map.

Thanks for the thoughts, That way did not work at all as was one of the first things i tried, but with aidenai help it is all sorted now, made a complete new V11 English map on a new SD card and is working perfectly

Many thanks
