General topics » Two questions from a newbie.

Apologize in advance if posting this in the wrong place but 2 quick questions.
1. My new to me 16 RS with Navigator V has the current date as 03/20/00 and the unit itself has no way that I can find to reset it. When I set the date on the bike instrument it goes back to 03/20/00 matching the GPS. Help please.
2. I've raised the bars 2" up and 1" back and the clutch hose is just a little tight. Can I disconnect at the master cylinder and quickly do my reroute without having to do a bleed provided I have an extra hand to plug things? I have no specified mineral oil and I'm well over an hour from a dealer. Thanks in advance.

Skip, the GPS should set the time and date when it connects to the satellites.
I take it you have been out with the Nav so it can connect?
Like Wessie mentioned, try a update.

I really like having the time on the Nav because it will automatically change the time for you when crossing a time zone.

In Settings it looks like you have to select the option to automatically set the time when the GPS turns on.
Setting the Time
NOTE: You can select Automatic to automatically set the time
each time the device is powered on

Yes, the time is set to automatically to match the GPS but the date on the unit is wrong which throws the date on the instrument wrong.

Yep, have time set to the automatic setting and it works great but the date continues to plug along 03/22/2000. It's now synced to my iPhone and it still shows 03/22/2000. I give up...

Try calling Garmin.
If they can't help over the phone the unit has a 5 year warranty.

Just to close on the issue, Garmin admitted having an issue with this and they're working on it. Thanks for the input!!

Did both of you recently do the latest map update.
I see someone on the MOA forum is having the same problem after the last update.

I am also having problems with the Garmin and the 1250. I have the date problem. I have an issue with music playback. I hope there is a solution soon, as I have not mastered playbsck via the TFT from my Samsung phone.
The phone function via TFT works better that the NAV V was ever able to.

Concerning the update, mine has not been updated in awhile. Garmin suggested I try that to "maybe" remedy the problem. I'm not hopeful. He added me to the list of contacts. Guess there might be a massive mailout with instructions or whatever to fix the problem.
