How to Restore / Reset a Garmin Nuvi GPS to Factory Settings (Both Methods) 
Хобби
Dear Richard: Thank you for your comment. Will be 81 come first of December. I am now alone after 54 years, worked non stop for over 60 years. Home place has too many ghosts. Rather than just waiting for my end, I am going to leave here and find some way of being useful elsewhere. Expecting to make mistakes! Learning as i go already has been enjoyable. Going to downsize soon. My truck is going to be fine but the trailer will fit a family, not a single grumpy old man. Learning how to best use this internet will also be fun. Younger people are a big help with that. Thanks again.Ken
I believe that we are here on this planet to learn, grow and evolve. That journey never seems to end for me. Thanks for watching and commenting. All the best on your new life.
Thanks Richard I have a drive 60 Garmin that will not update maps it’s only 3 years old I have done everything I seen to fix the problem. Garmin expires app will not Recognize that it tried other Garmin with no problem. Thank for any help you can give . Lawrence
I realize your comment is Three years old, but I truly hope you found what makes your life a personal paradise. Make life your own. 😉🌞🌅🌄
Wish you well Gramps 🫡
Just sold mine and wanted to clear the info before I gave it to the new owner. Would’ve never figured this out on my own!! Thank you so much!
You are most welcome. I am glad to know I could help you. Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Thank you very much for solving a seemingly impossible problem. I don't know what other helpful knowledge you provide, but gratefully subscribed.
Thank you it worked !! I have 27 days left to retire and didn't want to buy a new one !!! So happy!!
My drive 51 wasnt loading my routes, did this and they all popped at once, thank you.
Just letting you know your video is still helping people. Just helped me! Thanks!
Thank you for not rushing and for having the music very much in the background.
You are most welcome. I am glad to know I could help you. Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Thanks for the easy instructions. It allowed me to reset my Garmin Navi 2548, which would not connect to my iMac and I had been trying for over a year to do so. I was thinking of having to buy a new one, but after watching your video, everything connected and updated. Thanks - you saved me a fortune.
That's great! You're most welcome. Comments like this make my DAY! 😁️ I'm glad to know I could help you and that you got value from my work here. Thank you for watching, commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Just saw this and followed your instructions in real time. Very helpful. Thank you so much. Of course, we only look for these videos when we need them! 👌👌😂😊
Thank you so much for the easy to follow instructions! My daughter gave me her GPS but there was no manual and she left all of her old
information(from years ago) on the GPS. Your information is so useful, I have subscribed!
Thanks Richard for the good info for an old schooler!
Thank you very much Mr. Richard, always good to learn something new, very helpful. I also got a second hand nuvi 3590 LT, and dint know how to do the reset. Wish you a beautiful day.
You are beyond a 10 out of 10! Thank you for your Garmin nuvi secret, holding the bottom corner down as you press the bottom screen corner as you press the power button. It worked on an old 350 that had no use; it asked to type in the state, but nothing happened. Everything was dead! I tried the hold down, turn on method and presto I got all the questions; now my GPS works perfectly, no thanks to Garmin! I own several units but always like this one the best. Again, thank you a giga number of kudos! Now just tell me where I can but a tiny speaker for my 350!
Great easy to understand tutorial. Thanks!
Bought one used and wouldnt work properly. Almoust send it on repair but find this video and gived a try. Now it works perfect. Thank you.
Thank you so much as I was going to have to return my Garmin; because it came in Spanish!

Thanks for the video. Yesterday I was using my cell phone's map directions and I lost internet. What to do? I grabbed my Garmin which hadn't been used in a while to get me where I was heading....... it wouldn't boot up. I was supposed to meet a friend in the country for some metal detecting. Luckily, I was able to call my friend, explained where I was, he said, "Look to your right, I'm in the field about 1000 feet away. I was ready to chuck the Garmin in the garbage till I found your video. It's working fine again, thanks.
You're most welcome. I'm glad and happy to know I could help you. I'm still using mine. Thank you for watching, commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀

Helpful info
After getting my GPS a few weeks, I had this problem. Super glad I checked here before attempting to send it back! Thanks! It's now working again!
Awesome! you help me! i did subscribe and like! Thank you
Cancel my previous comment. I had left the unit plugged in, which I think affected its ability to work properly. After charging the battery and unplugging it from a power source it now seems to work just fine. Thank you, danke, merci, gracias!
OMG. Thank you!

Second method worked for me. Trying to salvage my nuvi as after the last map update, the nuvi shows me being always being a few hundred feet off the road I am on and all the new roads in my area are no longer showing up. Update...gps reset, new maps downloaded and working just fine now. Thanks

Million Thanks. Terrific video
2:44 Genius!
Thank you so much for commenting, watching and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Thanks, Richard. Mine is locked in a vicious circle. I enter the PIN, then follow your instructions to hold power button while holding thumb in R. corner. It loads maps and eventually takes me back to "enter PIN". The unit never opens, so I'm unable to do the reset as you describe. Is mine 'toast'? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
thanks, the first way doent work on mine either. now if I could get it to link with PC.
I own a Garmin Nuvicam lmthd. Will this work on it? I had issues with it not always updating latest maps. Then it seemed not to want to recharge, loading only to the logo screen. I'm hoping it's just needing a new battery. Do want to do a default reset to hopefully clear out any glitches. Liked your "How To" video. Simple and clear. Thanks for your contribution to help others.
Great how would you know? First didn't work but second did.....thank you
You are most welcome. Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.
DAMN you saved 1 garmin with boot error my respects !!
You are most welcome. Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.
Obrigado.
Thanks, but Where is the link for people having trouble with the Garmin Express software?
I have a Nuvi 1410 but can't find MTP option, how do I find it because the normal way of doing it in the Volume section don't work.
Hello, how come my any time I start the car engine always prompt me all the messages that you just did (I bought it from the pawn shop) I use it ever since without any reset?
Great video I have the 2689lmt which seems to be a good unit, would you happen to know how to delete downloaded maps as I need the storage on this unit thanks..
traveltips.usatoday.com/remove-maps-garmin-gps-21145.html
Thanks Richard I will try this.
I have a Nuvi 2689 LMT. Only the second method worked. I had been getting an error message that I had less than 10% of the storage space available. The download time also showed more than 12 hours. First, I used the Garmin "Base Camp" software to archive my route information on my desktop computer. Then I reset my Garmin GPS unit using the second method. I moved my personal content back to my GPS unit from Garmin Base Camp. I insured that I had the newest version of Garmin Express installed on my desktop computer - this must be checked manually! Then, I used Garmin Express to update the Garmin Nuvi 2689 LMT. Initially, the download time then showed about 3 hours the time increased some during the download, but it was successful. The available storage changed from just slightly over 1 GB to 0.98 GB when the update was complete.
Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.
and this procedure delete all the favorite adress already saved? because i want to resest my 3790LMT but without missing my favorites stored... thanks a lot!
Thanks..
Thanx Richard. Tried it and it works. I have had my 3597LMT here in Europe for about 3 years. I have had a couple of map updates and also deleted unneccessary language files as well as car icon files to free up space. After the 4 map udates during the time that I have actually done, I now have to buy an SD card as I am unable to do the latest update due to lack of space internally. Any clues as to how to reset from scratch and download the latest maps without eat more space as I am sure that the old backups are stored in the unit, or am I wrong........i.e. delete history and just have latest.
I have never had this memory issue but I generally just update the maps every once in a while. I would call Garmin support and see if they have a suggestion. I could give me the feedback on what they suggest I would greatly appreciate that. Thank you for watching and commenting. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
I have reset my Garmin 2555 everything works except the the voice. there is no vice and the volume is up. Under voice language there is no option to choose.
Can you give me any ideas?
Excellent thanks I have the old diesel Cam and garmin I think intentionally makes the maps too big for it now And took away option to do selective download to decrease size I think intentionally to force you to buy a new one
You're most welcome. On mine you can add a Micro-SD card (memory ) like this one at Amazon(paid): amzn.to/3ydNWSD
32Gb is really overkill but hard to get smaller anymore. I threw one in my Garmin and it would take the maps without issue. Check and see if you have a Micro-SD memory slot in your Garmin, it may solve your problem. Tell me if it does please. Thank you so much for commenting, watching and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
@@richardlloydusa yeah that's problem I'm running into is on device storage to small for maps now. They used to offer options like just midwest area to make it smaller but no longer do
Can you put more memory into it? On mine you can add a Micro-SD card (memory ) like this one at Amazon(paid): amzn.to/3ydNWSD

Gibt es die Möglichkeit einen anderen Ikon als das Auto Flugzeug usw auf das Garmin zu laden?
