Check for any loose connections, especially, the internal battery. Failing which, try using a home charger to operate your Nuvi. Hope for the best. [-o<

Hi, I hv upgrade my US205w to 255w mysg version3.10 but recently every time I switch on the unit, I need to re calibrate the unit. I have tried to downgrade to v2.8 but the calibration problem still exist. If this is a hardware problem, where can I send for repair? Will they accept a modded and US unit. Pls don't suggest to get a new unit as I still love this unit.

Thank you

If it shows Garmin logo and at bottom of screen says loading maps, then it is a sign of a corrupted map :-k
Hard / Soft Reset or remove battery will not cure problem.
Will only be solved if the "corrupted" map is removed.
If you stored map in SD card, then just remove SD card
If you stored map in MainMemory, then you are in trouble. You need to go to Garmin for help :-'
