Aurion Presara Sat Nav Display Problem

[Erebus]

It has been some time since my last post! I own a 2007
Toyota Aurion Presara.

I am currently experiencing an issue with the sat nav
whereby the screen is not displaying anything at all. This started tonight. All
other functions including touch screen functionality seem to be working. Could
it be a screen back-lighting issue?

I am taking it to the dealership tomorrow and I am very
concerned about how much this could cost.

Any advice you could provide on how to fix this would be
greatly appreciated. Many thanks in advance.

Okay, so I have found a replacement Sat Nav unit from a 2010 GSV40R Presara at a wrecker. Mine is a 2007. They look exactly the same. Does anyone anticipate any compatability issues when I replace the old one with one from a newer car? Any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

All done. Thanks everyone for your help. In summary I picked a compatible replacement up from a wrecker for $330.00 (like for like replacement). Installed it last weekend and found the previous owner had a pin lock out code enabled. Took it to the local Toyota dealer last friday and they reprogrammed the unit (Pin free) for $58.00. Great result in the end and happy to respond to questions if any one else has the same or similar problem.
