All -

Recently purchased am '04 RX8 - quick Navigation system question. How do I erase the address history of the previous owner? I have deleted all 'marked points', but also want to delete the address history. Searched forums, but to no avail (tried the 'secret' menus accessed from the Version Menu, but could not see where to update.). Any thoughts / suggestions / clarification would be greatly appreciated.

 

Stop cheating on your wife.

 

That was low.

 

I might beable to help you here. I'll look into it tomorrow and let you know how. Cause I done it before just don't remeber exactly where. Gimme a day and ill find it.

 

Thanks (and no cheating here - first owner would be the one worrying about straying).

 

Ok here are the steps:
1. Goto system menu.
2. Go into the part that lets you check your version.
3. Inside the version screen hit: up, up, up, down, down, down, up, up.
4. It should take you into a secret menu.
5. Go into Cd check and hit the cold start button.

This should reset all the settings from what I remeber doing awhile back. Let me know what happens or if you have any questions. Cause I hit the cold start button before once just to see what it did and it Erased everything on it. So its back to default.


P.S.

If you wanna check out the other secret menu screens you can find them with the search.
But since I am nice here you go.

Same thing go into the version screen.

Hit: up, up, down, down

or

up, up, up, down, down, down, up, down

 

if that didnt work in the same menu goto the part that says gps reset

 

Cold Start method worked perfectly - thanks so much for you help, greatly appreciated.

 

your welcome

 

Awesome! I know it's eight years later, but selling my RX8 , handing it over tomorrow and needed to clear my nav. Was messing with it for twenty minutes before I came across this thread. Thank you! Worked perfectly.
