+formula1 Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 My 60CSx sat for about 10 days and the batteries ran down. When I swapped out the batteries and turned it back on, the map display shows a line going from the Garmin headquarters in the middle of the US to my current location, and another line running from my last known location when I was geocaching, to my current location. I went to the Track Log in the Menu and cleared it all but when I go to the map it still shows these two purple lines plus the tracks I went on while geocaching. How do I clear out these track lines?

eaparks Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Several things to try: 1. Stop Navigating - sounds like unit may be navigating off road. 2. Clear "Active Track" log. 3. Delete the Garmin factory waypoint in Kansas from your waypoint file - unless you are wanting it for some reason. Quote Link to comment
+formula1 Posted September 21, 2008 Author Share Posted September 21, 2008 I tried all those things and it still stays there....is there a way to clear all of the memory out completely? Quote Link to comment

A hard reset will restore all settings back to the factory defaults. It will also get rid of all your waypoints, tracks, and routes (everything in the units internal memory); back them up on your computer first, if you don't want to loose them. The hard reset will not affect anything on the memory card. Quote Link to comment
reef mapper Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Its usual to have a waypoint in Kansas, and Taiwan, with a new unit, and option 3 above is the usual response. Are you saying that the Kansas waypoint wasn't there before when you were using the unit and only appeared from nowhere after the battery change? Quote Link to comment
+formula1 Posted September 21, 2008 Author Share Posted September 21, 2008 I don't know if the Kansas waypoint was or was not there although I suspect it was...the thing is, I cannot get rid of the track point line from the Kansas point to my GPS nor can I get rid of any of the tracks right now...and to top it off they are in bold purple color that looks like the Navigate To line. I've tried to Stop Navigate but that is greyed out so apparently that's not what the unit is trying to do... Quote Link to comment
Glenn W Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Have you tried reinstalling the firmware using Webupdater? Quote Link to comment
+formula1 Posted September 23, 2008 Author Share Posted September 23, 2008 I found out how to do it - I deleted those points and tracks in the mapsource program... Quote Link to comment
