Male connector

Post by yorky »

Does anyone know the correct name for the male connector on the Garmin car mount power lead for a 590. It looks like a standard micro USB connector but is a fractionally different size.

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.

Thanks for the replies chaps.
I'm beginning to think it may be a micro HDMI.

Thanks peeps.
I've found a solution for my issue that doesn't involve any works to original equipment.
