Nuvi 3590LMT map and speed problems

As a newbie to this forum could anyone assist with layman's fix for the following;
1. Downloaded 2017.10 no problem, previous CN 2016.30 which showed speed limits in Cyprus when I use it there. I had a OSM map loaded for Cyprus also.
2. Now the speed limits do not show?
3. Saving the speed limit as is possible on this device, it does not save?
4. Now my 2016.30 map saved on my laptop, mapsource or basecamp says its locked and I cannot unlock it even though I copied the unlock from my Garmin account, anyone assist with that?

Sorry for asking so many questions in this post, I have spent 3 days solid trying to resolve this through reading various forums etc but no success.

I even deleted all the map image files from the Nuvi but GE still says I have the 2017 map installed, pressing "where to" says no map data installed.

I am very confused how GE can says its still installed. Any help appreciated please, thanks for taking the time to read my question.

GE will tell you it's installed once you've installed it. It can't check it's been deleted by you. To reinstall the map select the reinstall option in Express.

As for the speed limits not showing, after any update if your device doesn't work as expected you should do a master reset. Having said that I've checked on my nuvi and it's not showing speed limits in Cyprus either so I suspect it's a map error. Your best bet is to point this out to Garmin.

If where to isn't working check that the map is enabled?

So are we saying the 2017.10 has a speed sign/limit bug ?

Not generally as far as I can tell but it seems so in Cyprus.

The previous map CN2016.30 showed the speed limits no problem, since the updated map they do not show now.

Why they wont save when manually input is another problem.v Crying or Very sad

If you're in UK call the Garmin free phone number. Note the first thing they'll ask is have you tried a master reset so worth doing that first. It won't deal with the map error though but may resolve the fact that inputting speed limits isn't being saved.

You can check speed limits anywhere by putting your nuvi into simulation mode and running a route in whichever country you want. I guess from your comments you're not in UK but the speed limits show here perfectly well with 2017.10.

Note the speed camera database runs completely independently from the map, indeed it would work even if you had no map installed. To do the basic installation isn't complicated, although I agree it's more complicated than Garmin's own one.

Master reset instructions are here

In that case do a master reset since speed limits certainly show on mine here.

How did you load the map to your nuvi?

That's why it's renamed that way then, MapInstall does that. Note it's not a good idea to use MapInstall as that doesn't install things like junction view etc.

If you've installed it once then the reinstall should be much quicker, as the files installed by Garmin Express that are used to compile the map that's sent to your nuvi will still be there, unless you've deleted them, so all that will be needed is for Express to compile the map from data already on your PC.
