The issue at long last is finally resolved. To make a long story short, they sent me the wrong disk two seperate times. Once I got the correct one, everything worked as it is supposed to.

Why it to ...

What you are saying doesn't make sense to me. Based on the first post, I would say that the connections on the cradle are not mating up with the unit when it's inserted.

But if it works with the wi ...

I think in order to get an email response you have to register your product and sign on to with Garmin.com. While logged in, go to the tech support page and submit your question/problem. Once they res ...

Just wanted to let everyone know the outcome. I reached Garmin tech support via email. Telephone access is extremely difficult (busy signals or 30minute+ wait time).

The support person said that th ...

Yes, I purchased new and had it replaced since the first one would not charge. The replacement was shipped before mine was received, so they are completely different packages. Neither box contained an ...

Installed the drivers and PC recognizes when I connect via the USB and turn it on.

But I see no way to access the mapsource software. I don't see any icons for opening and the unit doesn't show up ...

Definitely had the antenna flipped out. Cleaned contacts on both sides. Wiggled the around while watching the battery indicator and never got any indication that it was charging.

I suspect t ...

What is the charging voltage supplied by the cradle?

My mains adaptor says 5v DC @ 1 amp.

I was going to suggest that you double check that the Quest has snapped securely into the cradle, but if ...

Thanks for the information. I did have the speaker working, but there was no lightning bolt on the battery indicator when in the cradle.

It also did not turn on or off when plugging or unplugging t ...

My new Quest 2 is my first GPS. I had it on the car charger/speaker unit for a half hour or so when the low batter light came on. When I look at the battery indicator screen, it does now show that it ...

The Quest does seem to have what I'm looking for. Any recommendation for a mount to 7/8 bars?
