| Why wont my Garmin Nuvi 200W base stick on my dashboard? | | Hi i just bought a brand new garmin nuvi 200W and tried it out for the first time and everything went well.
I try it a second time and something happed to the stickey tape on the bottom of the dash board holder for the GPS because it wont stick at all now. It looks like a small circle of sticky tape on the base and after i used the GPS the first time i replaced the small circular cover that is supposed to protect the stick surface.......i removed the protective cover the 2'nd time i used the GPS base and it wont stick to the dashboard at all.
Does anyone know what i may have done wrong?
Thanx
i will pick a best answer | |

Under test conditions the car using the atlas took 1 hour and 35 minutes over a planned route, comfortably ahead of the 1 hour and 43 minutes for the car directed by the 220 pounds Garmin Nuvi. The Microsoft Autoroute 2006-which retails for 45 pounds-took 1 hour and 49 minutes, while the Web site directed car finished in 2 hours and 19 minutes after a couple of mistakes along the way. The downside of the road atlas-cost 8 pounds- was the time it took to plan the journey beforehand and the lack of detail once in towns and cities. As for the satnav unit, while it beat the atlas as the safe option for solo drivers, it was deemed to be a disadvantage that one can't... | |
