Sorry but your unit is a receiver. it does not transmit a signal that can be tracked.

SOURCE: i think my nuvi was stolen

No, A GPS only has a receiver. It does not have a transmitter that can be used for locating. If you know your Nuvi's serial number and User ID number, you might want to report it to Garmin as well as your local Police. If the unit is ever turned into Garmin for repair, they will notify the authorities and you will get it back.

You can also post your stolen Nuvi here as well:

SOURCE: someone took my garmin nuvi 250w can i track it?

sadly, no. garmin and most GPS devices are strictly GPS receivers, meaning they do not output any kind of signal that can be tracked. If your device has been stolen, i recommend that you register your device if it is not already registered with Garmin.

No, Garmin nuvi GPS units only receive data, they don't send data.

Connect your Nuvi 350 to computer with USB and look in Garmin folder for owners manual. It should be in the Nuvi's internal memory in PDF format.

Other: Go to www.garmin.com/products/nuvi and click Manuals link to download to computer.

We bought a Garmin nuvi 52LM 5" last August 2015 and it won't come on at all. Please help?

It is possible the battery is totally depleted. If it powers on when it is plugged in (either on the computer or with the car charger) then let it charge for abut 6 hours before trying to turn the device on.

How do I register my nuvi 50

Download and install Garmin Express to your PC. Connect your GPS to your PC. The program will identify your GPS and allow you to register it and also install any available updates.

My Garmin Nuvi 52LM will not turn on when I start the car with the cord in place.

1. Make sure that the charger outlet is supplying +12VDC. Try another device by plugging it into the outlet and seeing if it powers on.

2. Make sure that the fuse in the charger tip is not blown. The tip usually unscrews. It is spring loaded so be careful that the fuse, spring and power tip are not lost. Check the fuse. It should read 0 ohms with an ohmmeter. If it is glass hold it up to the light and see if the wire inside is open (broken). If the fuse is bad, replace it with the same value.

3. Make sure that the charger outlet is controlled by your ignition. If the the unit is on all of the time, regardless of the ignition setting, then the outlet is wired directly to the battery via a fuse.

4. Does the unit power up on its internal battery? Is the charger working? If it is bad, the unit will not power up when plugged into a 12VDC outlet.

Why don't I have data on my garmin nuvi 52lm?

Try running an update in Garmin Express. it should load it back on. otherwise your device may be dead. Sometimes Garmin Techs can get them working agian if you call 1800-800-1020

... also a 52LM is USA only and will not contain Canada or Alaska maps. For that you would need a 54LM
