Default NAV acting wierd today!

I went out to my car today to go for a drive for the first time in 2 weeks. Car was a little sluggish on the old battery when starting since i didnt have my battery tender on it and it has been getting colder here.
So I am heading down the road and noticed I couldnt get my NAV to work on my Kenwood ddx6019 with KNA G510 NAv add on.
This had me puzzled and pissed!! I tried to check setting and everything seemed to look fine. I then wondered if I lost some of my settings for some reason with the battery getting low. Just so happened that DPG was meeting up with us today and I asked him what he thought. HE wasnt sure either. SO when I got home I disconnected the battery for a minute or so like we both talked about and hooked it back up and my NAV is now working. I dont know if this was the issue, but it solved my problem(hopefully).

Does this make sense to all you audio experts out there that i could of had a problem with the battery going dead?
I dont know but I thought I would share this in case someone else has had a similar problem and you can try what happened to me.


PLease give me some thoughts on why you think this happened.
I did check the connections to the GPS unit and they were fine so it wasnt because they were loose either.

Glad it worked out for ya Dennis. Probably something similar when the c5 computer gets a little quirky on a dying battery with all the false warnings and check engine lights.

voltage got low and the gps computer may have freeked out and froze or something like that and disconnecting the battery and reconnecting it probally reset it
