I have a system desperately in need of loading.kwi... 

Lost the SD while the car was in the body shop for a month with a disconnected Battery, I can live without maps for a bit, but radio etc would be nice...

Hi all - and specifically David,.

I have a TNS510 in my '10 Avensis. A long time ago I/we lost the SD card, but the unit continued to work fine for radio and other functions - and we now use a Garmin for SatNav

However, recently I had to change the Battery and got the dreaded 'file cannot be read' message. I found *a* 'version' of loading.kwi and put it on a a FAT32 formatted SD, but all it does is flash up a quick 'reading file' message and then reverts to the 'consult to dealer' screen.

Is FAT32 the right format?
Does loading.kwi need to be written as a boot loader or something?
For how long should I disconnect the Battery to try to force the unit to re-load the boot file?
Are there different versions of the loader?

Sorry for all the questions - especially if they have been answered before. I have tried the suggestion in this thread, but still get the BSOD.
And half-life is hassling me so she can listen to the radio again...

Hi

the SD card shoud be formatted to fat32

the original card is 4gb. I know it works with 4gb or less. I think some have got away with 8gb. But it may depend on the firmware in the Tns510 if it will reconise a larger SD Card. The file i use is from a 2008 original Map SD card and may not work if the Sd card you had was newer 

To use

with ignition off put the SD card in and turn the ignition on to first position only and watch the screen. You should see a yellow progress bar. When it has finished, the radio and bluetooth should work again. If it did not work for you, you will have to buy a new Map SD card

regards

Hi David - looks like the bad news option.

However, before I spend money on something (that still may not work) can I check the file I have?
It's called loading.kwi and is 48,082,944 bytes. Does that sound correct?

Also, just to clarify, the units equipped with the SD map slot do not have a 'hidden' DVD, right?

Thanks, Alistair

Hi

the Loaging.kwi file should be 21mb for the tns510. That file you have seems too large. No there isnt a CD hidden away. It all runs from the SD card which is a 4gb  card. The Loading.kwi file is a UNIX file and is the operating system for the Tns510 and is not encrypted. The map data on the SD card is encrypted via the manufacturers serial number of the SD card so you cant simply copy another one. Where did you get the loading.kwi file you have. If you message me with a email address that can take 21mb like a gmail account i will send you mine

regards

David

Now back up and running! Thanks for the hints, David.

It was exciting to watch the yellow bar. (*SAD*)

[tarquin]

Ha Ha Sad is good!!
