How to Reset the Garmin nuvi 12xx, 13xx, and 14xx Series GPS Navigators

GPS City will show you how to RESET your Garmin nuvi 12xx, 13xx, and 14xx GPS back to factory default settings. Back up all wanted GPS data as a precaution before starting.

With the GPS unit off, press the bottom right hand corner of the screen. Turn the unit on while maintaining pressure in the bottom right corner. When you see a prompt asking, "Do you really want to erase all user data?", you can release your finger and select yes.

Problems that may be solved by resetting the GPS;
-My nuvi will not track satellites!
-Forgot what settings were changed and need to restart.
-My Bluetooth will not connect.
-The nuvi will not connect to my computer.
...

Also it is best to perform a firmware update using Garmin WebUpdater. This too sometimes fixes problems you see with your GPS.
