-   tried all the tricks in the book:
press reset button
start up in maintenance mode and clear all user data
Start up in maintenance mode and clear all waypoints
don't know what else to do.. seems to do this after certain software updates?! currently running version 4.7 of software. Version 4.6 was fine... with version 4.5 the bluetooth kept crashing as well.-   ivanka769

-   my blue tooth keeps turning off by it self it is very annoying this is happenning ever since i upgraded the blue tooh firmware on the web updater-   Guest
Please try to do these steps:
Turn off Garmin Nuvi
Turn "bluetooth" function OFF (on your cell phone)AND turn off your cell phone
Now, turn on Garmin and make sure bluetooth is in enabled mode
Next, turn on your cell phone AND turn "bluetooth" function ON
Wait about 30 seconds or less, your Nuvi should connect now w/ a phone icon.
I understand, it's such a pain, but it works for me everytime I do this.
Remember, Phone must be off and bluetooth is also off before you turn on your Nuvi.
Good luck!!!

I had the same problem, and this is how I fixed it. Now it's working fine.
Thank you for contacting Garmin International,
If
you are currently running the most current version of bluetooth
software, and you are still seeing issues where your compatible phone
is still not connecting properly, please try the below procedure, which
will reinstall the version of bluetooth you have downloaded in case
there was any corruption during the transfer or installation of the
bluetooth version.
1. Power the unit on
2. Touch View Map
3. Touch the ETA/Speed button in the bottom left hand corner.
4. press and hold your finger over the speedometer for 10-15 seconds until a new screen appears.
5. Touch next at the bottom of the screen until the top blue banner reads Bluetooth Status.
6. Touch UPDT P, then Touch yes.
7.
At this point the unit should go to a page that says Updating Bluetooth
Firmware, allow this to finish, once finished, press quit, then press
and hold the back button. At this point, go back through and try to
connect your Bluetooth device again.

I updated on my Nuvi260 theCity Navigator® North America NT on march'08. Now I got the message that is more than one year old and that I have to buy an update. So I have to pay $59 every year or to buy a different brand GPS? I went to Austin (Leander), and in the middle of a 5 year subdivision, the GPS was showing that the subdivision does not exist.
