Here is the master re-set... I would recommend doing it one by one. But if you dont have the patience... here is the link.

Ive never tried it before. If you do it, let me know how it works for you, and what exactly it re-sets.

The navigation system really sucks from a user interface standpoint. Nothing seems to be easy to figure out. I may have read the instructions once but I refuse to have to consult a manual to find out how to do something as simple as delete stored points.

I just use my droid now.

I had do to the same thing with mine. Did not take me but just a couple of minutes to delete all the saved routes. Took a minute to reprogram the "home" location and another minute to rename the seat one position. read the navigation manual....tells you exactly how to do all that.

Ill have to look at the manual because trying to do it myself by just fiddling with the screen, i couldnt get them to stay deleted. Its like they are locked in there.
