Re: WARNING - Garmin Zumo XT hot-shoe connector weakness
Probably not anything related but, Is it in motorcycle mode when it comes on? With the key on, the mount pins get 5+ volts? But mounting the XT it turns on because it sees voltage, then goes to battery? Is there some kind of CANBus voodoo going on where that circuit has voltage but shuts off if it ...

Re: WARNING - Garmin Zumo XT hot-shoe connector weakness
Do you think this issue is caused my removing the XT and refitting it many times? I have just got a new adaptor for my XT see here And it has a aftermarket connector and not the OE garmin one I was wondering if it would be best to leave the XT connected to it permanently Not in my case at least.......

Re: WARNING - Garmin Zumo XT hot-shoe connector weakness
Well removing the tape didn't change anything. What I don't understand is why the XT will power on when I turn the key on the bike....but operates on battery power and the fuel gauge feature doesn't work because it doesn't think it's in the motorcycle mount. :roll: I have wondered about tightening t...

Re: WARNING - Garmin Zumo XT hot-shoe connector weakness
:!: :!: **HELP** :!: :!: I've read the first couple of pages and the last couple...admittedly didn't read the entire thread, so can't say for sure if this has been addressed already. First, it appears I have the "new" cable. IMG_8319.jpg Don't know why it posted sideways... But, when I tur...

Re: Round trip function
I may be lucky or just haven’t used it enough, but the other day I asked to make a 2 hour route and came up with one that looked pretty good. It didn’t seem to take too long for it to come up with it. Guess we’ll see what more use of it brings.

Re: WARNING - Garmin Zumo XT hot-shoe connector weakness
Hi there, Two weeks ago I went for drive and lost half way the Zumo XT. Back home it turned out that the battery is flat dead. Charging through the wall socket worked fine, in other words charging on the mount does not work anymore while for over a year it worked fine. In noticed that the pins on t...

New Zumo XT owner
Good morning all. I have just recently purchased a Zumo XT, I've had a 550 for a LONG time. It started acting up and I thought I would upgrade. I haven't even mounted it to the bike yet, but so far I am loving it! It seems to blend the best of my old 550 and my iPhone into one device. I used Basecam...
