Troubleshooting
My device will not acquire GPS signals
If the device is not acquiring satellite signals, there could be a
few causes. If the device has moved a large distance since the
last time it has acquired satellites or has been turned off for
longer than a few weeks or months, the device may not be able
to acquire the satellites correctly.
Ensure the device is using the latest software. If not, update
the device software (Updating the Device Software).
My device will not turn on or keeps turning off
Devices erratically turning off or not turning on could indicate an
issue with the power supplied to the device. Check these items
to attempt to troubleshoot the cause of the power issue.
Make sure the power source is generating power.
You can check this several ways. For example, you can
check whether other devices powered by the source are
functioning.
Check the fuse in the power cable.
The fuse should be located in a holder that is part of the red
wire of the power cable. A 3 Amp fuse is used in this power
cable. Check the fuse to make sure there is still a connection
inside of the fuse. You can test the fuse using a multimeter. If
the fuse is good, the multimeter reads 0 ohms.
Check to make sure the device is receiving is at least 10
volts, but 12 volts is recommended.
To check the voltage, measure the female sockets 8 (power)
and 2 (ground) of the power cable for DC voltage. If the
voltage is less than 10 volts, the device will not turn on.
If the device is receiving enough power but does not turn on,
contact Garmin product support at www.garmin.com/support.
My device is not creating waypoints in the correct
location
You can manually enter a waypoint location to transfer and
share data from one device to the next. If you have manually
entered a waypoint using coordinates, and the location of the
point does not appear where the point should be, the map
datum and position format of the device may not match the map
datum and position format originally used to mark the waypoint.
Position format is the way in which the GPS receiver's position
appears on the screen. Commonly displayed as latitude/
