Garmin 500 won't activate and fly other legs in flight plan

Recommended Posts

I used to be able to switch my P3D Maule M7 Garmin 500 to advance to any other leg in my flight plan, but no more. Steps I used are:

FPL>activate cursor>Scroll down to a fix for leg after current leg>menu>activate leg using enter button. The Garmin 500 would then leave current leg and go to selected fix to start desired leg.

This worked great until recently when I tried to set up a flight plan on my Electronic Flight Bag. Now I cannot activate the selected leg i want to jump to, even with EFB not running. After selecting Enter to fly the desired leg, G500 ignores my request and continues flying the fight plan.

Tried updating P3D v5 to a newer minor version (content and client to 5.0.31.35253) but that failed to fix the problem. Could this be a problem with P3Dv5?

Help with suggested repair is really appreciated.

Thanks, Gary
