Hi and welcome to FixYa,

Based on your post, a most likely case of battery not charging or battery no longer holding charge. Unfortunately, no external key manipulations would correct this type of problem as it is hardware or in some instances, firmware. Trying to open it up and check on the charging circuitry and/or the battery would void your warranty. Anent to this, it may be to your advantage to return said unit for replacement or warranty repair.

Alternatives would be to try and check the voltage of the output of the charger with e DVM/VOM. In some instances, cleaning the jack/plug may help due to possible corrosion.

Pls post back updates. Good luck and thank you for using FixYa.

How do i update my navman C60

you need a new one. C40 and C60 no longer supported. Buy Garmin instead.

We appreciate your interest in updating your Navman device. However, the C40 is one of our old models. We no longer have updates available for it. This is due to the technological advances in mapping data over the past few years. The size of the mapping data is too great to be handled by the older hardware and we are unable to release map upgrades for these devices. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.
The best option that we can offer is our trade-in program. You can take a chance to purchase a brand new device at a discounted price with full warranty. These new models will have the latest software and maps. And, most of the new models come with free map updates for Australia and New Zealand. You may click on the appropriate link below for more details:

Navman s30 3d 2009 map update is useless

You should be able to install your old map from the DVD/CD that originally came with your Navman - you don't need a Product Key for this, even if it prompts you for one.

It appears that the commercially available 2009 map for the S-Series does *not* cover the S30 3D, just the non-3D versions, although that's not at all obvious from what's on Navman's web-site, so you have my sympathies if you bought it expecting it to work...

Navan will not switch on

It sounds o me as though the battery is dead or flat - if you can get hold of a usb - mini usb cable and a usb mains charger from somebody (if you do have one yourself) get them plug it it to the mains and leave to charge for at least 12 (preferably 24 hours) - it should be working fine then. (if you do not have a usb mains adapter - plug it into a pc - but leave the pc on to charge it)

The battery is probably run down so much that it doesn't have enough juice to power up - this happens usually if you haven't used it for a while because the battery is being used up to remember where the last GPS position was.

If charging still fails to fx it - then the unit needs a new battery - contactnavman support in this case.
