I have a Nuvi 360 that is around 15 months old. Last night while coming home
the Nuvi lost satellite track. I clicked out the main menu and selected the
Satellite screen ans sure enough, there are no satellites being tracked! Am
I SOL and facing a $200 repair for being out of warranty for 3 months?
any ideas what to try? I did the master reset! I webupdated the software and
nothing changed. It is all but useless right now
don
I'd call Garmin, they have been known to bend the rules and get it fixed for
free or cheaper even after the Warrantee has expired. Give it a try.
I called Garmin. the first time they gave me a set of things to try and
offered a $100 repair cost. I told them to let me try all their suggestions
and did so when I got home. This included a diagnostics reset and leaving on
and outside for 30 minutes. When that failed to fix it I called back and got
a different service rep who ultimately gave me a free repair RMA
this is what I expected by going with a top company.
thanx all

Use the full reset button, as described in the manual. Warning: you will
lose all your saved points.
