Sat Nav Garmin c510 Deluxe

Hello there,

I have a problem with my Garmin Sat Nav.

When I turn the GPS unit on, it says: 'can't unlock map', so now I am unable to type in a destination postcode to get directed to.

Please could you advise what I need to do to fix this problem please?

I am looking to be able to access my UK maps which I could previously get, but for some reason there is now this problem.

Thanks for your help

Going back to the security location will unlock the unit but in order to reset the pin code, the original pin code must be input.

When i switch on my garmin c510 it tells me i cant unlock maps how do i solve this problem

Details on unlocking maps for Garmin Nuvi satnavs are at http://www.fixya.com/support/r6197735-no_detailed_maps_found_support_routing
StreetPilot satnavs probably use the same method. You may need to skip to paragraph 2 and start from there.

No detailed maps found that support routing the streetpilot cannont be used without them garmin streetpilot c510

You're unit is probably missing the gmapprom.img file (failed update maybe?).

Try contacting Garmin - if you've got registered maps they may send you another copy (although big file - 100+MB)

New Maps - Can't update unit

The new maps will be unlocked to your GPS using the code Garmin supplied you.

You will have to add these maps to a second SD card if your present card is full, or else purchase a larger card. Since all the Mapsource NT 2008 Europe maps are 1,395MB in size, you'll need to purchase at least a 2GB SD card.

Cant unlock maps

What is the Garmin 510 that can't unlock maps stating exactly? And to Nici07 who said, "Need to unlock device", are you referring to a PIN lock or locked maps?
