Zumo 590LM missing Maps

Post by psouth5644 »

Hello - I had purchased a Harley Zumo590LM a while back. No MAPs were loaded and Garmin no longer supports the device. Does anyone know how I can get USA maps loaded onto my device ? Mt Garmin Express shows no Maps and I can not choose maps, so I am guessing no maps were ever out on this device,

This page lists the 590LM as map compatible:

So perhaps Map Install will help?

Lifetime Maps (LM) were a fairly new feature when the 590 was brought out. Some of the earlier 660s and 665s had LM after their name.

I don’t know of any 590s that didn’t have LM after their name, but why would I ? There may have been some, and I know that each unit was assigned to a particular area, so my EU /Uk units could not load USA maps.
Have owned Zumo 550, 660 == Now have Zumo XT2, XT, 595, 590, Headache
Use Basecamp (mainly), MyRouteApp (sometimes), Competent with Tread for XT2, Can use Explore for XT - but it offers nothing that I want !

Dealer demo models only had the demo map, and only 4GB RAM. Express will show no maps available for them. Maps can be loaded of course, but easiest is to buy a map on SD card from Garmin. Other methods are... less easy.
