Do you wait for a satellite lock before you drive off? |

I'd give Garmin a call since something is wrong. If still within warranty they'll replace it. _________________ Where there's a will ... there's a way. |

hi,
no its well out of warranty,and probably not worth sending away to garmin.it was an expensive one at the time and has worked well in the past,alas its given up.
