GPS TIME: The current GPS time
is displayed to the right of this
button. Press GPS TIME to set the
navigation system's time to match
current GPS time.

Daylight Saving Time: Press this
screen button to increase the time
setting by one hour, then press GPS
TIME to save the new setting. If the
screen button is light blue, the
daylight savings time feature is on.
If the screen button is dark blue, the
daylight savings time feature is off.

Thanks for that info, but no good. Time only resets after overnight. Will keep great time when driving, but when I turn the vehicle off for a few hrs....then it resets back one hour.

I'm not sure this is the issue, or if this will solve the time shift, but do you have your Nav home button set to your place of residence, which would be in your time zone.



That should set the Nav in the correct time zone. Once you set the clock, it should stay in that time zone.

I've never had that issue with the time shifting.

Yep, and something else I found out this year is that it is fob related. I carry both at all times and set it this year while fob 1 was running the car next day I got in and fob 2 came up and the time was back an hour. After a stop, when I got back in fob 1 was running the car and the time was right again.

Amen brother. Anything to do with the factory NAV is just painful. Whoever created the user interface will hopefully spend the rest of eternity in a very hot place.
