Magellan Map330M gps screen is flickering!!!

Tried new batteries,no change! When I hold unit near middle side unit stops flickering for a short time? Any ideas are welcome. How do you open the unit? Since Magellan dropped support once production stopped my only recourse is to try to fix it myself. Magellan has lost a future customer since they only support their products while they are selling them!!!

SOURCE: Magellan Roadmate 360?

You can download the latest firmware here:

http://www.magellangps.com/support/notes.asp?supportID=290

It looks like your right, and it is no longer supported..

perhaps with the Magellan RoadMate PC application, there may be additional download available...

Did you try to install the "Region Update 2.18" from magellangps.com ?

  • If you did, there is a solution posted for that.
  • If not, have you ever done a back-up onto an SD card?
  • If you did, copy USBTRANS folder from the backup to the Maestro SYS folder via a USB cable. Try it now.
  • If it still doesn't work, you will probably have to send it to Magellan for repair. Be prepared to wait a few months for it to be returned, and don't expect them to contact you with updates. I know that stinks, but it is the way it is.

unfortunately you have to purchase the unlock code from magellan. You contacted magellan and the unit is no longer able to be unlocked? Once I have more information I can assist you further.
Thank you,

SOURCE: i dropped my magellan gps system and need to order

How could you lose the Sim on dropping it?

Any new sim card or SD card really will fit it. But if you are looking for map replacement then Magellan are the only people who can supply the correct maps. There is a charge for maps $150 approx. So be aware that they do not replace maps of SD cards free. You will need your serial number, as these are tracked to stolen GPS before any new map0s are provided.

SOURCE: Magellan Roadmate 2000.. No GPS signals

make sure the battery is charged up good, then take it outside and turn it on and leave it in clear view of the open sky for up to 30 minutes to acquire the satellites especially if its been reset.

if that fails, reset the unit...turn it on, then locate the reset button on the left side bottom of the gps and use a paper clip to depress the reset switch...it should restart on its own..take it back outside and let it in clear view of the open sky for up to 30 minutes.

if that fails..go HERE and get the update and follow the instructions..you will have to sign on to the Magellan site before you can download anything.

if you need more help, just post back

My magellan mastro gps touch screen will not respond. less than 4 months old. magellan wants me to send the unit back to be replaced by a refurbed unit with a 3 month warranty. i would like to know how can...

turn it on, make sure the battery has a good charge on it, then locate the reset hole on the left side near the bottom and use a paper clip to depress the switch...youll know its reset if the unit goes off and reboots....if that fail, it needs a digitizer (the part that lets you navigate your magellan) its the upper layer over the touch screen.

i buy broken magellans off ebay if i need a digitizer or screen..normally for under 20.00

My Magellan Crossover's batttery was dangerously low - tried to charge it with SwitchPower Supply -didn't work.The screen has a faint glow - can't turn it off or on. Can take the back off and change the...

hi gtrojan even with a deed battery or no battery at all for that matter, your crossover should still start normally while connected to external power.

first try the reset, with the unit on (even if it is dim)use a paper clip and insert it in the little hole on the side. if it starts normally and is still plugged to the charger, go to the main menu/options/power and see if the chaging indicator is moving from side to side. if it is not moving,



The following Magellan 800,860,2000,2200t,2500,(crossover) 3000,3050,3100,3140,4000,4040,4050 and the 6000t are known to have faulty dc connectors...if your Magellan gps is not charging or will not power up, its most likely the dc power port.

you may also have another issue with the screen but you need to find out why its not charging 1st.

you can get it repaired here
or buy the port here

let me know if you need further help!

Not tracking

Reset the unit by clearing the memory. Hold the RIGHT ARROW key and press the POWER BUTTON, while holdingthe RIGHT ARROW key until the DELETE MEMORY screen appears. Select YES and press ENTER. Then procede to initialize the GPS. Leave it outdoors for an hour or so to acquire satelite feed.

Magellan Triton 400 update failed unit stuck in white screen

Actually some bad news for you all. When you used the VP somehow you corrupted the internal software in the GPS. If the damage is done then you need to reflash the internal memory of the GPS. If the unit is in warranty .. then call Magellan.

I have a Magellan Maestro 4040. It is about 3 years old.

Magellan has to change the batteries But they will probably just sell you a refurbished unit.
BUT if your good you can take the thing apart and try to locate a replacement battery
Three years old? I'd try to find a battery

Which unit did you get last night?

Magellan Maestro 3200 GPS - wrong time on unit

My Megellan Roadmate had the same problem the time was way off and the date read 8/06/2009 instead of 06/17/2009. I tried everything the previous posting mentioned to no avail. I called Magellan tech support and they talked me thru it. (1) Turn the unit on outside ( not in a building ) (2) Hold down on the power button for 20sec. then let go. (3) Turn the unit on and go to the map. (4) Touch the upper rt. corner were the bars are, the screen will change and say tracking X (#) of sattilites. wait untill the bars for the sattiligts all change to green now you can go back to the main menu and the time should be correct.

GPS Elevation/Azimuth Always Read Zeros

Josh, The grey cable that you see (sometimes it comes in a black woven cable as well) as soon as you open up your unit has to be connected to the main board in the corner. Additionally on the I/O card or GPS board (the board that's attached to the rear cover) has to be connected as well. If you see any loose cables and you find a place it fits, plug it in. So, the answer to your question is yes, that could be the problem. -Daniel

Blank screen

Same problem that the older IFiner (Lowrance) had, it is an internal problem with the GPS, needs to go in for repairs, BUT first see if it is cheaper to just purchase another GPS
