PCM (GPS) map stuck - any tips?

[t32b]

My 2005 CarreraS Cab (U.S. model) with PCM/Nav has an odd problem. Driving back from SF one night, the PCM map display got 'stuck' on a specific point in the city. Every since then (two months now, I haven't had time to make it to the dealer), the map point will not 'move'. The PCM/Nav works - that is, I can program in new locations, and it will guide me there with arrows and voice, but when I switch to 'map', it remains in the same place. I can zoom in and out but always around the same point.

I've pulled the fuse to the PCM (I think), to try to reset it, pulled the Nav DVD for the same reason - to no avail.

It's weird and freaky.

Any ideas? I DO have to make it to the dealer for an oil change and a broken horn (!), but would like to know how to fix it myself.

Thanks,

Rich

Look in the nav.menu if NAVI-FIX is ON, if it is change to NAVI-FIX OFF and go back to FACTORY SETTINGS. If the problem persist a visit to the dealer is recommended.

Just want to thank you for this tip. I hadn't found my way to this/these setting(s). And I don't have any idea how this got set. But it's all fixed.

Again, many thanks.

Same thing just happened to me in my '05 C2S, but the map is stuck in an area I visited last time I used it two days ago, and the cursor is way off center in the upper right corner. I think I'll just bite the bullet and let the dealer handle it, because I'm a complete techno-dolt!

I looked in the PCM manual, but it's a bit vague on how one gets to the navi menu shown on page 90. Any hints? Thanks.

I finally fixed the stuck map, and after a lot of trial-and-error attempts, it was actually quite simple. I first made sure the Navigation was active (it wasn't at the time), and all I did was hit the SET button while on the stuck map. The menu came up; I selected Factory Setting, pressed the MAP button again, and BINGO; up came the map working as before. By the way, I never did see a NAVI FIX option. Cheers!
