Russ; Thanks for the generous offer. If you don't mind, I will wait a couple of weeks. I got my nerve up today and tried the fix again. One battery shows a red battery indicator on the screen, so I may have pooched that one. I am testing my second battery now. If I'm still stuck after testing my se...

I'd be happy to do it for you but I fear the delay time and costs from you to me would be prohibitive. I understand riding season in The Great White North is nearing its end so tell you what- if someone more convenient chimes in ok, I certainly won't be offended. If no one does and you're good with ...

I found that using the motorcycling profile really screws things up as far as avoidances go. I switched to driving on both the device and Base Camp and the problems went away. I later went back and "converted" re-used routes from motorcycling to driving in Base Camp and was amazed at the differences...

Never had a problem with the USB lead charging things, as long as the GPS is in it's cradle and powered up. Doesn't give many amps out though. Others have had a similar problem with their cradle, and here's one thread on it: https://advrider.com/f/threads/garmin-zumo-590lm-usb-power-cable-problem.1...

I originally thought I had a defective cable unit as the usb would not charge my motorola android phone, it worked only as an aux input when both the phone and gps are in place. I subsequently found out that the usb generally does not charge most modern devices from Yamaha and Kawasaki motorcycle fo...

There is another way to make via points that will not announce on the Z550. In Basecamp if you shape the route using the Insert Tool (pencil icon) by clicking and dragging the route, and place the resulting via points PRECISELY in an intersection, the resulting via points will not announce on the Z...

Well that didn't work either. This time I’ve formatted the sd card, so let’s see what happens next Garmin's kind of goofy with SD card formatting. I never had any luck doing it on my computer then installing it in the device. I was always better off buying a new card, putting it in right from the p...

I went (I think) through the same thing with my 595. The connection on the device itself is a USB-B mini. The connection on the cradle seems to be slightly different as a USB-B does not fit. As far as I could tell, it's Garmin proprietary.

Have you considered: open GE and click the settings gear. In General Settings, check the box about running in the background and in Schedule settings, click a box for automatic update time. Just wondering if it will make a difference. It seems to have with my PC. Haven't had a GE update problem in a...

can you not alter the settings in google to avoid interstates? we have a tick box to avoid motorways is that the same? Don't know about avoidances in Google maps but, being limited to only 10 shaping points severely limits the custom routing. When you use them up Google automatically routes however...
