my fodsports motorcycle gps date has reverted back

19.6 years, still able to navigate, but saves tracks

 using earlier date 19/3/2006, confusing,

The GPS week number rollover is a phenomenon that happens every 1,024 weeks, or about 19.6 years.

Hi Graeme. I am not familiar with the Fodsports GPS so I looked it up on Google and got the following result. Maybe this will help you.


To reset the date on a Fodsports GPS, you'll typically need to ensure it has a satellite signal, which will automatically correct the date, or perform a system reset using the pinhole reset button. Check the device manual for specific instructions, as some models might require a software update through a separate program to fix time-related issues. 

Method 1: Wait for satellite connection

  • What it does: Most GPS units, including many Fodsports models, automatically set the correct date and time once they establish a connection with GPS satellites.

  • How to do it:

  1. Take your device to an open area with a clear view of the sky.

  2. Power it on and wait for it to connect to a sufficient number of satellites.

  3. The date and time should update automatically.
