Nav V wrong date
#1
I was out for a quick ride today and noticed the dashboard displaying the date as 04/23/2000. I know the RS is fast, but I didn't know it is fast enough to achieve time travel. I believe this requires exceeding the speed of light, or at least 88 mph.
I later figured out that my BMW Navigator V GPS thinks the date is April 23, 2000, and the bike is set to use the GPS date and time. On this page https://support.garmin.com/en-US/?faq=d6...8Ca1Nigce5 it says:
"The GPS satellite system communicates the date via a week number that is limited to 1024 weeks (about 20 years). On November 3rd, 2019 the week numbers broadcast by the satellites will “rollover” to zero. If GPS receivers don’t account for this rollover in their software, it will calculate the wrong date and/or time."
Apparently the Nav IV and V software does not. The Contact Product Support link on that same page will take you to a page where you can log an email support request. You can ask them to let you know when the software update is available.
