Garmin 800 and re-routing

Superbalicious

Slight niggle with my 800 recently. Did a search but couldn't see answers. I always Garmin Connect to create courses and send them to the 800. Then, when choosing a course to follow, I always make sure turn guidance and re-routing are enabled. However, recently if I have gone off course my 800 seems to always want to take me back to the point where I left the planned route.

What I'm not sure about is whether it is 're-routing' me back to the point where I left the course via the shortest route as sometimes it just wants me to make a u-turn. If I persist and re-join the route further ahead, it still seems to want me to turn back, as if it is making sure I have not only re-joined the route, but also followed every part of the route. I hope that makes sense.

Anyway, just wondered if turning off u-turns would help, or whether turning off re-routing would solve the problem of the 800 trying to make me head back to the point where I left the route. I would have thought it would just re-route me back on to the route at the nearest point but then allow me to carry on following the route once I was back on it

Any thoughts...?

Im no pro but I had a similar issue when UTurns were enabled, ive since turned them off and it now allows me to carry on and rejoin at the next spot.

Thanks, that seems to have done the trick
