I suggest you try resetting the device by following the instructions in the owner's manual. If the issue persists, it may be due to an error in the map database. You can try reinstalling the maps to the memory card after unlocking them for your device. If you are still experiencing issues, please contact Garmin Product Support for further assistance .

Systemsoftware missing oregon 550T USB ontoegankelijk

ENGLISH Translation. We are a North American website, we only converse in English. https://translate.google.ca/ System software missing Oregon 550T USB inaccessible. I can't manage it, I've been busy for hours and days with all the tips, but I can use the mentioned program Updater.exe and I have also seen other program names that you have to put on your SD card of max 32 MB in the folder with Name GARMIN, after which the system software should start again from the SD card, for this you still have to turn it off - remove the batteries, insert them, connect the USB, put your nail in the top right corner, but without a program I can't get anywhere. Because it does not recognize the USB, I cannot use the web updater, which also means that Garmin Express is out of the game. Who oh who can help me further? =============================================== Download and use Garmin Express as a clean install. Use the Web Updater. Make sure the Device is registered on the Garmin website. I am on my third Garmin Auto GPS and never had a unit that couldn't be reset or updated. https://support.garmin.com/en-CA/?partNumber=010-00697-18&tab=software Or return it to Garmin Europe https://www.google.com/search?q=garmin+oregon+550t+handheld+gps+receiver+reinstall+software+download ..

My Rino 120 won't turn on anymore. I turned it on to change channel, turned it off then was never able to turn in back on.

I've got a 130 that was over volted by accident. I presume the internal fuse was blown and took it apart, but it isn't apparent where the presumably tiny surface mount fuse is located. Anybody able to point me in the right direction?

How to prevent Drive52 continually resetting itself ?

By 'resetting' you mean it switches off, and because it is connected to power, it boots back up. Do you have a SD Card in it? I had trouble with a Nuvi 1350 with SD Card that had the whole USA Map on it, mine came with the Canada Map only. It would randomly turn off, so I decided to buy a Factory Refurbished Drive 50. I removed the SD Card and Reset the Nuvi and it worked perfectly after that. The Drive 50 was also a bit flaky, and resetting fixed that as well. You can back up your Favourites beforehand.

I have the Garmin etrex 20x and wish to calibrate the compass

I recently purchased a Garmin GPSMAP 78s I had a lot of trouble calibrating the compass; I literally tried it hundreds of times without success. I also did a hard reset etc etc. Believe me I definitely tried everything possible but to no avail I did contact Garmin but they didn't have an answer straight away for the problem I have now sorted it as follows: Do each step VERY SLOWLY, MUCH slower than you think you should There are three steps to go through in calibrating the compass 1)Spinning the whole unit around flat 2)Flipping it over longitudinally and then 3) Flipping it over end to end. But remember do each step VERY slowly and go to the next step when prompted by the unit This solved my issue. I can now calibrate my compass 9 out of 10 attempts Hope that helps

Garmin nuvi 205 series, keeps beeping and

You can restore the Nuvi 205 system software to its factory condition by running Garmin's WebUpdater service. You may also want to try a hard reset of your Nuvi.

These are both good steps to take when a Nuvi starts acting up.

I hope that helps.
