delbert · 08-29-2008, 8:35 AM

My nuvi 350 (some times only) when I'm driving a route, suddently loose the sattelites. anfter few minutes, comes to the screen "are you indoor" I answer NO, "are you 1,000 kl frome your home", I answer NO, then ask the date but still not working. I ran a Master reset and does not work eather. I left on overnight and is working now. but I wonder that this happent to me again.

Any help?

Thanks

Hi Delbert, welcome to the site!

I was going to suggest a reset, but since you've done that already...does it always happen in the same locations? Could it be possible something is interfering with the signals in a specific location? I've been through some areas on military bases where they were actively jamming the civilian frequency.

Well, I'm going to be alert where is happening.
Thanks for your advice.
I'll let you know.

I had the exact same problem with a 350 6 months or so ago and I called Garmin. They recomended that I download an update for that unit. That seemed to fix the problem. I don't recall what version I updated to, but check their update list to make sure you are running the latest

I ran an update resentlyl and as of today is working OK. Next update is the NA 2009 the new map. do you think I should update the map? I wonder if I'm going to have the same problems again.
