Ah, no!

Haven't even considered it...is that done by inserting a pin somewhere in the unit or is there a button to push?

Thanks 😊

Is there an sd card? So no, I haven't used, fitted, removed an sd card. I bought the unit 2nd hand, didn't even get a cable with it let alone a manual....

I'll have a look when I get home this evening. Where on the unit is the sd card slot? Or will it be obvious (I've never noticed one).

The SD card slot is in the battery compartment.

You need to take the battery out, which in itself, will not be a bad thing as it will force a hard reset.

Also, make sure your data cable is Garmin-compatible. Not all USB cables will successfully link the Garmin product to a PC.

Brilliant, thankyou.

I've noticed the nav has lots of maps loaded into it. If I swap out the sd card will I loose the European maps or can I relaod them from Express or Basecamp?

if the SD card turns out to be the problem then you can replace the SD card and restore the maps using Express - you will lose any routes and tracks stored on the SD card but you might have those backed up in Basecamp anyway.

Thanks Wessie, I'll look into that once I've dug out, and replaced the sd card
