Question about Garmin nuvi 350 GPS Receiver
I experienced the same problem about acquiring satellite signal even when it's a clear sunny day. After 30 mintues, it was still searching! The unit appeared to have "stuck" in this acquiring mode. The following worked for me: 1) open the GPS antenna 2) press the bottom left screen while holding the power button to turn the unit on 3) enter maintenace mode 4) select diagnostics 5) clear error report, do NOT clear any user data 6) restart unit the usual way My GPS 350 was able to acquire satellite signal in less than 1 minute after the above steps were taken.

1. The GPS is turned off if you do not have the antenna flipped out from the back. 2. On the main menu screen you can press and hold on the top left hand corner to bring up a screen showing satellite reception strength and accuracy

The problem might be that your GPS is not able to connect to the satellite.
I'll see what the problem might be.

Update/Reload your unit's GPS and sytem software via Garmin page or use Web Updater. Your unit will be functioning again. This problem also occurs if you leave your unit on a dash board in a car and it is exposed to hight temperature.
