The battery has depleted it's life cycle and needs to be replaced, yes.

Hello,
To take apart a replace the battery of the Navman S50 you will have to:

1. Flip the Navman over and remove the 2 screws in the bottom.
2. Use a small flathead or other flat service to pry off the 2 curved panels on the side of the unit.
3. Look for and remove the 4 screws on the rear panel.
4. Use your flathead to once pry of the remaining back panel.

Please let me know if I can assist you further.

Yes, for activate this maps, you must pay in navman web page this service. but, I am using TOMTOM, in PIN 570, and it's working fine!

Try Start Settings System GPS and tap ON before starting the satnav program. Not all programs automatically switch on the GPS. On hitting ON yellow light top left starts flashing. Now start your satnav program..

You need to change the battery. It is not a fun thing to do. Do a word search for Navman PIn 570 Replacement battery either on Google or Ebay. You have to disassemble the unit to get to the battery that is taped to the unit's motherboard. There are hidden screws on the back of the unit, then you have to gently pry the 2 halves off. Big Heads up here: the round dial on the left side...be sure to tape that in place when you first disassemble the unit, otherwise it falls out into 2 or three pieces...that dial is a pain to get back together if you do not tape it.

I recently replaced the battery on my unit. There are two additional screws on the back of the unit, near the bottom in addition 2 screws under the flip up antenna. They are covered by small black plastic discs which need to be pried off first. After removing the rear cover with a knife edge (or similar) there are several other screws which attach the circuit board to the front of the unit which need to be removed. Note that the one near the edge should only be loosened, and the board slid out sideways. Once this has been done you should be able to access the battery which needs to be pried off the board, as it is attached with an adhesive patch.


(If the battery is totally dead it takes about a day before the charge led starts flashing.)

Run the Navman software in XP emulation mode. Do a word search in Google for "XP emulation mode in Vista" to get instructions on using emulation mode.

Remove the 2 small screws and use a tiny flat screwdriver and insert it by where the screws came out and twist. It is clipped down with a series of plastic flanges which can be popped with a twist in between the front and rear case. You need to work your way around the case doing the side with the earphone jack last as the cover needs to slide slightly sideways to slip off. Don't be afraid to use gentle pressure as they will pop apart and wont break

Do i need to keep power to my Navman N60i as i change the battery,or is it ok to remove the battery and place the new one in. Will i wipe out the memory.Thank you.

Remove SD card and place the Navman on a soft surface face down so that you do not scratch the LCD screen. - Take out 4 screws ONLY. 2 under the gps antenna and two hidden black discs at either side of the bottom on back of unit,Make sure you use a small Philips screwdriver.
- Use your finger nail very carefully around the edges, go extremely slow to detach the cover. Once it opens, make sure of the Power switch button, they seem to fall off.
- Remove clear tapes at the battery connector. DO NOT pull up the connector, you need to pull sideways and make sure do not use excessive pressure while pulling.
- Place the new battery in same manner and also place battery cables neatly so that the do not come in the way while closing the cover. The LCD display should turn on. If it does not, look at the Battery connector and make sure it is all the way in.
- Put the cover back slowly and then make sure nothing is dangling along the edges. Do not forget to check the Power Switch button; it should be in proper place. Press the cover firmly, it should snap in place.
- Charge the battery fully before using Navman.
- Insert SD card. You may need to reload Navman application software or restore from SD card, if you stored on the SD card previously.
