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.

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.

cheers jack
