Thread: Unusual routing

First thing to do when you experience any aberrant behavour from your device is to hard reset it. In the case of 1xxx and later series including your 3550 it's better to clear nonvol. Back up your favourites if you want to restore them later.

If that doesn't help there's a good chance your suspicions are correct and this routing problem is map related.

Thanks Neil, will do. Non-volatile clearing is better than a master reset, correct? Or should I do both? And I assume you get to it by going to the developer info (through the speedo), right?

One or the other usually is enough however both can't hurt. Clear nonvol will do everything a hard reset does but is even more comprehensive. It's indeed accessed by holding speedometer [or upper right corner of volume screen] for several seconds. Thanks to fujita's kind test though it seems the map is at fault, the 'lock on road' feature being erratic made me suspect that.
