INTRODUCTION

Lexus models equipped with Hard Disk Drive (HDD) Navigation require a Special Service Tool and follow a unique process for updating the map, points of interest, and system software. Instead of individual DVDs installed into the vehicle, ALL map data is uploaded directly to the HDD system.

Map data will be released annually through the direct shipment of 2 map data DVDs to each dealership service manager. The annual map data release MUST then be installed onto the Navigation Update Tool. Individual map updates are then loaded into vehicles with special map security keys. These keys are available through the normal parts ordering system. Keys are loaded onto the Navigation Update Tool through a PC or Techstream unit using software found on the Technical Information System (TIS).

Follow the procedures listed in this bulletin to:

NOTE:
  • In order to perform the procedures outlined in this bulletin, you MUST have completed the setup procedure.
  • Before performing this procedure, disconnect ALL other USB peripheral and external storage devices (i.e., USB thumb drives, hard drives, cameras, mice, etc.).
