4250 North America doesn't support European maps. Go figure.

SOURCE: Magellan Maestro 4040 power connector has is loose how do I open

Remove the four very small screws from the corners of the black case. Carefully with a thin screwdriver or similar tool, pry the silver frame off the black back. This will expose the circuit board. You must also detach a small cable connecting the screen to the circuuit board.

before rating me as not helpful, please read the following because im not trying to be smart

first let me say this. i have a 4050 that has the voice recondition and its about the biggest rip off ive seen from magellan.. i think there is only like 4 or 5 voice options ...virtually any sound inside the car activates it (very annoying) absolutely worthless in my opinion.

the only know way to get the unlock code is to buy it and it cost about 100.00 which you have to contact magellan for it...there is no known crack for it,

if that is what your looking for..if you want to purchase it, you can contact them at the number below, but you will be calling them for your money back because it it so lame, its not worth 1.00 let alone 100.00

the following advice pertains to the following magellan gps systems.

Magellan 800, 860, 2000, 2200t, 2500, 3000, 3050, 3100, 3140, 4000, 4040, 4050 and 6000t

i fix these and many other magellan gps daily so when considering my advice , please understand i do not google my solutions.

assuming your car charger is working (the little green light is on) and your magellan still wont start up after holding the power button while its plugged in for up to ten seconds and still does not start..read below (magellan 3000.3050 and the 6000 take about 10-15 seconds to start from the off position)

this is actually a very common problem with these magellan power ports...they are poor quality from the factory and always and i mean always fail..the new ports that you find on ebay are 100% better then the factory port.

if your able to replace that power port yourself, you can get one HERE, if not, ask the fellow that sells them for help.

due to some dubious "experts" on fixya, im not permitted to help you directly, but please follow the link above to get further help.

let me know if you need more help or info
