You-Tube video "S2KEu_if7wA" placeholder (do not delete)HOW DO I INSTALL A BATTERY IN MY GARMIN NUVI 660 - utube.png
The company that produced the video sells a kit which includes the battery and tools necessary to do this yourself if you'd like. See: http://www.newpower99.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=GARMIN+NUVI+660&Show=ExtInfo I swapped the battery of a friend's dying GPS using the aforementioned kit and all went well. His nuvi 680 is back up and running smoothly.

Http://homepage.ntlworld.com/webspace8/ this is for the 300 series but the 660 is exactly the same I did my 660 in about 45 minutes, Its fairly simple just be careful of the ribbon cables garmin charges quite a lot for this you can do it yourself in under an hour and save a lot of money. The battery is marked “1A1A613F1”, Garmin Part No. 361-00019-02. It is manufactured by Samsung and is a Lithium-ion item, rated at 3.7V 1250mA.Hr
