The four reasons that I can think of for why one may receive the "Unable to
Create Route" message are as follows:
1. The Pedestrian or Vehicle route that is trying to be created is outside
of the region for the loaded map(s).
2. The RichMap engine does not have enough memory to create the route. This
basically means the unit is out of memory, which is why a no-key reset is
recommended to free up memory. 
3. A Pedestrian route is trying to be created on a non-navigable street,
such as a highway.
4. A Vehicle route is trying to be created on a non-navigable street, such
as a terminal for pedestrians.

Again if a starting and ending point can be given, such as an address, POI
name or lat/lon would be great.

Thanks, 

Kevin

Hi, I have had similar difficulty creating even short routes using GPS 5.0. 
The unit says unable to create route.  In the past with V 4.22, I had the
same problems after I had been using the calculator.  By doing a simple
reset on the unit, the problem was resolved.  But I don't know what causes
this to happen before doing the reset.  Jim
