Default Clearing out all NAV settings?

Hi all,

With all you C6 experts out there, is there any easy (one-step) way to clear all the settings and presets within the NAV computer? Like deleting all the preset destinations and preferences? Mine is acting a bit funky, like calculating a 75 mile route to go my neighbor's house across the street, and it seems be insisting that I have to go to place called Medina (a small town about 30 miles from here) and back whenever it calculates any route. I thought I may have something weird set and clearing it back to all factory defaults would solve this problem.

Individually clearing each item, one at time won't work, because I'm not sure what causing this issue.

Someone else posted a message a couple of weeks ago with a similar problem, the nav would create a route that was many miles out of his way and it turned out to be left over waypoints from previous routes.

Default Thanks, Lowlead!

You know, I did do a search for this kind of thing before I posted, and that post didn't come up right away. Thanks for pointing it out. I'm on the way home now to try it.

Make sure it is set for the correct region. I just returned from a trip to region 1 and I changed it for the trip. When I returned home to region 2 I forgot to change it and every time I put in a new destination it would route me to the wrong town.

Hey just a tip since it sounds like you input the street name first then the city name (the order the Nav is set up for). If you input city name first, 1. you'll avoid the above issue because right away you'll see it's giving you the wrong states , and 2.more importantly, you can then input the street name much quicker since the database is now only the streets in that city
