It sounds like some how your settings got adjusted by someone.

While in the Nav screen, press the "Menu" button, which will take you to the Menu item settings for Navigation. Inside there you can adjust the display preferences so that your turn by turn directions show up again.

Also, while you are in the menu settings screen of Navigation. Go to the "Guidance Prompts" menu and make sure the Play Guidance Prompts check box is checked. It sounds like that check is uncheck, thus disabling the guidance prompts.

Do you have any kids?? Because it really sounds like, someone went into the Navi menu and messed around and changed the settings on you.

Pull out your Navigation/MyGig book if you still have it. I had a few issues and found the troubleshooting section to be great..

Or just wing it and go through everything, you might as well learn it all!! Good luck

Here's a step by step.
1. Goto Nav Map Screen
2. Press the "Menu" Hard Key button.
On the right, you should see 5 Display screen options
- Display Settings
- Screen Saver
- Full Map
- Turn by Turn
- Turn List

It sounds like you have "Full Map" activated. You want to press the "Turn by Turn" button. The Turn by Turn will only display when you are routing to a destination and a turn is coming up.

Hope that helps.
