I got nothin'. They are complex machines, but let's start with the basics.

Is the fuse for the radio etal popped?

For a lack of other ideas, pull the negative battery terminal for about an hour and reconnect. Its worked with the nav position errors.

Probably won't help but can't hurt to try.

OK, now I re-read your last post, never mind. But pulling the fuse did the same thing. Seems like all else fails reboot.
