Will this allow traffic to be enabled on the Garmin Nuvi 2597LMT?

I have the 2597 and this unit. It DOES NOT allow traffic. I wish is did. So far only the power cable that came with the 2597 has the receiver in it.

It should, but be careful if your original cable has a 90 degree angled plug in the back. If it does, you need to make sure you don't bend it-it will fail after a short time.

I don't believe there is a traffic antenna built in this power cable. It powers the unit but that's it. The original cable for the GPS has a built in antenna.

No - The 65 LMT automatically displays traffic alerts without any additional connections. The only connection that I make to my vehicle is the power connection to the cigarette lighter receptacle. So far I found my Garmin unit to be extremely accurate. No complaints.

Hey, you should check before the part in GARMIN USA for your NUVI GPS. Even thought, there are a couple traffic receivers but they just Match with specific GARMIN GPS. I would say, your receivers doesn't match wth your GPS, therefore check other reference on traffic receivers. Best ,

Hello Daina,I don't know if there is an option in the setting that would permit this...It only loads the best rout that it calculates to be the best option. If you connect it with the traffic sensor, and depending on the traffic in your planed rout, it may give a new option (route), and let you know how much time you could save... You will however, have to accept the suggestion before your GPS could implement it (the new route )...Have a great day,Kevin

Yes will work with NUVI 65LMT -however a notice may post when u connect it stating this charger is not compatible with traffic notifications, but that pertains to different traffic program you sign up for. You still get the basic traffic that comes with unit. Hope this helps

No but you can purchase map upgrades ONE TIME from Garmin that are good for the life of the Unit. It does come with lifetime traffic though.

It is compatible. The 2555LMT, may have a built in traffic receiver. You can verify this buy selecting settings, device, about. If you have traffic info, it is built in, if not the external cable will be needed.

I think that it's not OK that all it says on the box is "free traffic" instead of "free traffic with ads." I don't quite feel fully-informed by Garmin. I'm thinking seriously about returning my unit just because I don't like being treated like that.

If your nuvi is a newer model, the traffic receiver is internal, and this cable will work. Older models require the GTM series of cables to get traffic information. If your unit has the internal traffic receiver, go to Settings: Device: About. If the third line on this screen says something like "traffic receiver: internal", _ANY_ USB Micro cable will get traffic information when you are close to major cities.

I have a Garmin Nuvi 265W and bought the Garmin GTM 36 traffic receiver to replace my Garmin GTM 25 traffic receiver. So far I have not had a problem with it. It should work with your 255W.

It is working correctly for "Garmin nüvi 1350LMT 4.3-Inch Portable GPS Navigator with Lifetime Map & Traffic Updates". Not sure about Garmin 2577. Believe cable you are looking for is "GTM 60™ HD Digital Traffic Receiver" which can be found on garmin.com (https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/shop-by-accessories/traffic-receivers/gtm-60-hd-digital-traffic-receiver/prod104181.html).

The Garmin GTM 25 is for older models with the antenna connects to FM traffic and 2495LT Nuvi uses 3D traffic. My guss is NO.

As far as I can tell, GTM 25 will not work for nuvi 2595 LMT but you can try a newer model.

Yes. Nuvi 2595LMT does have micro SD slot in it. I have used it some time back and it works without any issue.

I don't know, I've never used it for traffic information, I used it at at altitudes above FL290 where ther is no net, but I believe u would need the net for traffic information.
