|
|
Hi
Please help!
My wife has a NUVI 660FM PND, as a treat I thought I would buy her a traffic receiver GTM21.....All smiles when she opened the box, but sadly the smiles turned to a frown, as she discovered that the GTM21 did not fit any of the connectors on her 660FM.
Question: where should the GTM21 plug into. Her 660Fm has a 10 Way connector under the flap (The GTM21 has much smaller 18 Way connector)or a mini USB socket.
I feel it must be me that is being stupid!....Can anyone please advise me where I am going wrong? Hopefully, with your help I can get the smile back on her face.
Thanks
The Earl |

Hi and welcome.
On the 760 the GTM21 plugs into the right hand side of the mount, however i'm stuggling to find pictures of the 660 connectors.
Did you get a new mount with the TMC unit? |

Page 2 of the manual here shows the TMC being plugged in underneath the mount. Does that help? |

Hi
Thanks for that, I was trying to plug it in to the Nuvi 660fm itself not the mount! I said that it was probably user error.
On checking in her car I discover that she already had a GTM21....!!! So although it works ...she can hear the traffic alerts in Stereo!!! I shall have to try and return one for a refund.
Cheers

I wondered why you were buying one as my 660 came with it. |
