Navi option not in OBC anymore

06 997 4S got serviced a couple of days ago at OPC as part of it they noticed an issue with airbag detection light that required a new instrument cluster replaced under warranty.
Only noticed this morning that the Navi options and display on the OBC have disappeared ( I do have PCM with NAV installed) only get the average fuel, remaining fuel, average speed options when cycling through now (the radio, CD track info is displayed correctly).
The nav unit itself is working fine, i'm going to try the 148 reset and reset the fuses for the cluster and PCM unit but other than that any other ideas?
Obviously I'll be going back to OPC if those quick things don't fix it but anyone else got any ideas? I'm assuming that when replacing the instrument cluster they haven't programmed/activated the Navi option or something?
Cheers

I believe there should be a setting to enable the display of the 'Nav' functions in settings. Push the OBC stalk away from you and scroll until you find the display settings.
 
thats the issue, the setting isn't even there to select in the OBC....was all working before the instrument cluster swap out.

In which case the new instrument cluster has been incorrectly coded during the swap.

It is simple to code.
 
Mine once disappeared randomly - but re-appeared after a stop-start of car. Such are the quirks of the 997...

However I would concur that in this instant it sounds like a trip back to OPC is necessary to re-code things.
