A Garmin Nuvi 1300 that won't start, freezes on 'loading maps,' or is acting erratically is symptomatic of having corrupt firmware.

To correct this, I recommend backing up your favorites, clearing all user data, and if it still is stuck, then updating your Nuvi firmware.

Follow these three steps to take to get your Garmin Nuvi 1300 running like new:

  1. Back up your Favorites.
  2. Perform a Hard Reset.
  3. Download and then run Garmin WebUpdater to replace its firmware / system software.

I hope that helps.

My nuvi says no detailed maps found that support routing what is wrong this is all it will do

You may have corrupt files. You can call Garmin Support but be ready to wait possibly one to two hours.
they can work remotely and look at your gps when plugged into your computer. Make sure that your maps are in the correct diretory as well. The 1300 map software is located and a hidden .system directory.

My Garmin 1300 had its maps earased by some unknown reason and now it wont work. It worked on Friday then when I went to use it on Sunday it would show the garmin symbol and say loading maps. After that it...

Hello, take the sd card out of the unit, press the reset button if one is available, if not hold the on/off button for 10 seconds and then reinstall the sd card and switch the unit back on and hopefully the maps should reload
