Voice not working

Hi all,

I am the proud new owner of a Discovery 3 HSE 2006. Very Happy

I have worked out most things but I just cant get the voice recognition to work. Is there a way to switch it on/off? Can it only be used with certain items on ie nav/radio/bluetooth?

TIA

Dean

Can't see the spec, but you may have a broken mic cable. Does it understand anything or just keep saying sorry all the time? Bodsys Brake Bible

Hi,

No it does nothing ie no beep and does not turn down the radio. It is as if it is switched off and I cant see how to turn it on?

TIA

Wouldn't spend too long on it- it is largely a waste of time unless you speak like the queen........or was it a queen..... I was never sure which! Laughing

Maybe it is not fitted on your model if there is no beep?

I know it did work as I pressed it once the first day I had it and it did beep and turn the radio down.

I remember checking them on PDI's Laughing

Had to put on a dodgy accent for it to recognize anything... My D3 Build Thread

Maybe it is just that us Dundonians don't speak proper, like.

I told it "ma peh fell doon the cundie" and I expected it to reply "a plane ane or an ingin ane?" and all it said was "sorry, command not recognised'!

gave up after that. Sad

The voice control issue has been solved

I have been having a navigation DVD read issue so have upgraded to the latest maps and I now have full voice back for nav, phone and music etc

Thanks
