Hi there, just tried updating my I3 unit and i think something has gone wrong, i registered with my garmin and recieved my updated version 9 maps and also my unlock code which when entered was correct, and went along with the instructions then i opened mapsource and hi lighted uk maps to transfer to unit but when i try and find somewhere it through up blank, it will ask me what state but its uk and i cant find postcode entry now also in mapsource it wouldnt find any postcode that i put in so i presume ive done something wrong somewhere Confused

Does anyone have any ideas please of what ive possibly missed or done wrong and is there any way of fixing it?

Just off the phone to garmin and the lady i spoke to diagnosed that ive lost the mapping Confused

and wants £75 to fix it by doing a master reset on the unit as i cant find my reciept but do know that i bought it mid july 06 from comet - i checked with my credit card for dates. Any thoughts or ideas please?

Hi
Have you asked Comet for a copy of your receipt? If you have most of details they should be able to help.

Cheers I took a run to comet and got a store copy of reciept and then called garmin back only to be told a master reset (holding all 3 buttons) was all that was required and it worked Wink

Hi
I was going to ask if you had tried that. I presumed that Garmin had allready gone through that with you
Glad it is OK now
