Garmin 255W showing a thin horizontal line when used at nights: What do you think guys ?

Is this line at the very top edge, very bottom edge, or in between? If it's somewhere in between, I haven't noticed this on any of the Garmin models I have used, and I'd exchange it.

Thanks!!!! I recently had the same "disconnected" problem; Garmin support took me through an upgrade and I was fixed for about a week before it returned. Since I didn't have a chnce to contact them during Support hours, I went online, and your excerpt from the longer fix above worked for me, too!! Just hope it stays fixed this time.

I can use my 255W while charging via wall plug, so the issue you describe is not "normal". I'll get a dark screen that states the "maps are loading", the maps load, and the I can use the unit within 30 seconds. Sometimes the unit is delayed launching maps while it looks for a satellite signal. Have you tried charging the unit in an area with a clear southern view?

I unfortunately, have not used my new unit enough to notice this, but will try to find a way to communicate if I experience this issue. Sorry!!!

Well I've got the 255W and have tried all of this stuff. It used to display the Garmin logo before turning off completely. Now it is just dead. Pressing any of the corners of the screen while sliding the powers witch for 8, 15, 30 , or even up to a minute. Does absolutely nothing. It has been charged with the provided car charger as well as a USB and still it is stone dead. Judging from my experience and the posts on this thread the 255 is a dud.

Sounds like you are having trouble with the night vision IR. Call zmodo 800 line. They are very good. Sounds to me like the camera may have been damaged in shipping or something. It should definitely see in the dark.

Instructions suggest that you call Garmin and tell them your problem. Hopefully they will be able to put a fix in.

Check the LNB rotation. Also, I noticed that for some transponders, changing the LNB frequency gets the quality going.

At the moment, there is not which is disappointing since it may be a cause of not only draining the battery slowly but also a little annoying when using it at night and day. I will look into this more and report back to you when I find a solution, well if I do.

Thanks, DS. Garmin's reply to me was that i must be using a non-Garmin charger. I'm using the charger that came in the box! This thing is brand new. I just let them know that and I'll post back with their reply.

I love the 765T, but recently have had problems when battery is fully charged from my computer and seeing message "low battery" when I try to use it in my car. I have written Garmin support and they should write back within 3 days.

Zachary, Mine is broken too. I called Garmin and they want me to send the unit in for repair. They want $125. I could just about buy another one for that price. Have you figured out to fix yours? I am still trying to figure out a way to McGiver mine. David Wallace

Hi Dave27,I'm using nuvi54. I'm not sure about 52lm, but I have a feeling that it won't on yours, too.

Hello Tyler.I bought the same sysrtem and the cameras are making loud noises when triggering to Night mode and day mode at dusk and down. That is not a defect, is simply cheap materials used on them to make em less expensive.
