Surely, you can remember where you were when you set the pin code, just return there and it will unlock itself.
Garmin use this to deter thieves from unlocking stolen units.

For your information, the only solution because of design, is the answer you do not want to hear!

It is in the design of the GPS, that if you forget the pin number, it must be brought back to the reference home position where the pin was entered in order to unlock it. The alternative solution is to send the unit back to Garmin with a copy of the proof of purchase.

After 10 wrong pin attempts, the unit is permanently locked, and no matter what, Garmin will have to unlock it.


Good Luck!

Jerry G.

Where is the Product Key located? It says it was supplied to me with my installation disc, but I never had an installation disc. I've done everything online so far. Please help!

i got my Garmin 200 as a present and I forgot my Pin code, also I can't figure out what is the security location. I have tried to get information to unlock it, but the only information that I have is that I have to send it back to Garmin with a receipt that i purchase it. It was a GIFT!, how to unlock it?
Also I tried to get as many combinations possible but, it is getting a little anoying after number 1500, and I had suppose 8500 left to try!!!!, HELP!!
