Really helped me get on my feet with this unit without having to work through the arcane layout of the manual. Thanks!!!

absolutely excellent description. I had my Garmin sitting in a box after having tried the installation 5 years back, dreading to go back to it. Had I known about your tutorial, I would have used it all this years rather than relying on my phone.

Thank you for a very informative and easy to listen to video! This helps me understand MUCH better my new GPS. Again, thanks!

I just have to say that you are excellent in conveying your knowledge of the Garmin Satnavs! My problem was simply that I could not fathom out just how to fit the Ball Joint! Sounds simple, but being a plastic material (that could easily break using force), I decided to check out your video tutorial. My Garmin (52 LM) has those two small clips on the rear of the unit. Your tutorial helped me understand that these clips were for the release of the 'cup' section from the unit. My first thought was - that these two small clips were just to 'lock' the ball joint following insertion, to prevent the Unit from moving on the ball joint. Not only have you succeeded in making a great tutorial, from reading the comments, you have also helped many people with the myriad of Satnav issues. Thanks so much, and greetings from Australia.

Thank you! I just purchased a 61 EX, and it's slightly different in the menus because the capabilities are different, but most were the same. This was very helpful to me and I believe I have mine set up perfectly now thanks to you.

Thank you. I just purchased a Garmin Drive 55 and your tutorial was the best that I have seen on KZfaq so far!

Thanks, I've had my Garmin 50 for several years and you showed some features that I never new I had. Great device.

I bought my Garmin 51 in a panic because my previous one's manufacturer has ceased their vehicle satnave and updates and the maps were many years out of date. Your tutorial, is absolutely excellent and I'm particularly pleased to have got the entire gadget customised and set up in one sitting while watching it. Brilliant that with arthritic fingers one can so quickly and easily lift the satnav out of the windscreen attachment, what great designing! Thank you very much indeed :)

Thanks for the tips, been using a Garmin for years and never knew about some of them lol, just shows your never to old to learn something new.

Just bought the 65, as you said no instructions. This was a great help. Thank you

Thank you much as I just opened this gift from a birthday 4 years ago and found the instructions you gave helpful

Thank you for this! So much better than trying to wade through the manual (that doesn't come with it and you have to download). SO HELPFUL!

Thank you sir,you explained everything very clearly, I appreciate your effort 👏

very helpful for someone who is not tech savy, you made a very easy to understand video, thank you for your time to teach others.

One of the best tutorials I have seen

That was very easy to follow and helped me reset my daughters Sat nav to make it easy for her. Many Thanks from the U.K :)

Very informative, and straightforward. Thank you.

Thank you for a very comprehensive video well done

I use the truck Garmin, but everything is almost the same.... There were some things in it which were so confusing, but I've come to know them today... Thanks very much for the teaching.. 👏👏👏👏👍👍👍

Verly good tutorial. Easy to follow along. Did not rush-perfect speed.

Thank you. I like the way you explained things.

Tech Tips thanks i just got my Garmn 51 and fallowed your lead and got all my setting right. Now i need a lession on how to put in address . I think that just might be easy after a few times. THANKS Again !!

Great Information! Thanks. On my DriveAssist 50LMT There is vertical yellow banner on the left side of the screen with a squiggly line in it. It appears often along with a tone. I can't determine what this is or how to turn it off. Any suggestions? I have updated the unit several times but that never goes away. Many thanks!

This video was extremely helpful. Thank you

Very informative indeed. Loved it . I had this drive 60 gps for many years but only today i got to know its full utility. BIG thanks. Actually, recently while driving my GPS got switched off suddenly and did not start again. This led to my search and landed here. i am not sure why it happened. May be i had not updated the software for long?..i dont know but when i connected it with PC i found its battery sign was showing 'zero'. I got it connected with PC fully charged and also updated the gps. Now its getting started. i will use it and see if it is working normal. gps is around 4 yrs old but hardly used.

When we go to a town or neighborhood we haven't been to before to do garage or yard sales we use the trip log to make sure we have covered all the streets in that area. Beats the hell out of guessing.

Best/ honest explanation on KZfaq.

Have to say i do like Garmin, sat navs, and your videos are very usefull thanks

Very helpful! I am shopping for new navigation unit that was very old. A good look at programming and running this device.

I really enjoyed coverages of the GPS Features. What is the max size SD card for the 60LM Garmin DRIVESMART GPS, and it’s advantage.

this is brilliant. so well explained.

Very good job on the description.

Great tutorial, well explained. If you could answer one more question please. Can this device be used as an off road gps navigation, for activities such as hiking etc? Can additional maps can be installed an used for such purpose? Thanks.

You skipped over the "Toll Roads Always Ask" selection under Navigation. Other than that, this is an excellent learning video.

Thank you for this video... you made is soooo easy!

Can i take out the battery in the garmin drive 40, and use just the 12v car charger? so that when i turn on/off the ignition and power, so does the garmin?

Thank you for your time and help with a lot of information.

Thanks! A good primer while I wait for it to get here.... :)

I am new to this thanks for the Help.

Thanks, great walk through.

Excellent explanation!!!

I needed to know the difference between start new route and add active route. My Garmin took me way off when I pressed active route. What’s it for other than getting you lost !

SUPERLATIVE! Thank you so much. Pefection

I’ve never really thought seriously about using the dash cam feature. It was just something that was included in the GPS I bought. The downfall of this model though is that if one uses the weighted grip support, this model doesn’t sit high enough to get a clear view of the road ahead. I may have to invest in a suction cup style holder.

Very informative I thought I would never figure it out, but with your help I think I have cracked it. I would like some help in how to down load a GPX file from a Android phon to my Garmin. Thanks again for a great help to a old chap.

Thank you for a very informative video, I learned a lot from watching this, Great job..

Hi! This is a great video, thanks for the details. My question is, I about the Garmin LM40, and the use of USB cable while driving. So my car's cigarette socket is occupied and the only way to charge the SatNav is to connect the USB cord to the available port. This seems to not only charge the SatNav but also turns of the GPS signal. Is there any setting I can use to correct this? I need the USB cable to charge the device while I use the navigation

Really helpful video, thank you

Great video. When you take a screen shot, how do you retrieve it? I can't find a folder anywhere. Seemed strange that at 16:38 you were surprised that there was no avoidance for toll roads & then at 17:27 you skipped over it right under Custom Avoidances.

Very helpful 👍 Just purchased a 52 and want to update maps? I have an iPhone and an Amazon tablet but can’t figure out how to update? Can you only do updates if you have a computer or laptop? Thanks

Thanks for the information👍

Nice tutorial, thank you very much

I ended up buying a 61 LMT-s. I know you told me not to get it but I think it has everything the 65t has at a much lesser price. I will probably use my 65 LMT for every day use and my 61 for trips. I like my old workhouse, the 65t, but on the road I need the extra stuff in the 61. It is also 6.95 inches, a full inch bigger than the 65t.I also got it at a descent price. Do I need a TA-20 power cable with it?

Great job explaining how to use it l ready to take it back because l didn't know how to set it up thank you very much

That was awesome. Thanks very much

hi, i have the garmin nuvi 50LM but accidentally i erased the system software, do you have any idea for recovery?

I have a question I updated my and it went firm the simple screen to a really complex screen with a lot of apps and stuff how do I get back to the same screen as your

I need help. when I plug my garmin 50LM to pc, nothing happen on the pc. the garmin turn on to maps mode, not pc mode. I tried change the cable, use different port. I suspect the usb port is damaged but I cant test it to confirm, and also the seems fine visually. where can I get the parts of that usb port?

Very good tutorial. Tyvm!

How can I change the default city to my city instead of Miami Beach , FL? Please let me know. Thx.

Thank you for going step by step to help me use my Garmin 50

phenomenal, thanks!

I just received my 55 today thanks for the tips....much appreciated

Can I preset my destination addresses on Garmin 52 before reaching the USA. Heading to Florida soon and would be ordering the Garmin 52.Thanks

I did not see you cover it. On my Drive 60 I can't not figure out how to add an address to My Favorites. On my old Garman I would type the address in and then it would give me the option to add to My Favorites . I do not see that on my Drive 60?

Hi, nice tutorial. I have a question you may have an answer for. When im driving i like to see how many miles are left but this new version doesnt show it like a previous version used to. Am i missing something. Regards

Excellent! Thank you.

Very Helpful video. the only downfall to the Garmin is you can't put in say "12 stores" and have it calculate the nearest store to farthest. I have two GPS's now ones a Magellan which does that for me. A few stores for the Garmin isn't an issue but when I have say 12 I had to buy the Magellan.

Hello, im seriously considering purchasing the "DRIVE 51 LM CHILE" (im from Chile) because this version allows you to install any 3rd part maps but, and your video was really insightful but im not really sure about if its going to work for my needs (mostly for long trips, off road, or overland) but im more concerned about how does the device handles corrugations and bad conditions of the roads?, and also, how does the device handles the heat of being constantly in the windshield with direct sunlight (sorry for my broken english), other than that i see its an affordable good quality gps device wich in this version still supports 3rd part maps!

I followed your video for changing the battery on the garmin Dezl 570 And I let it charge on my laptop for a couple of hrs but when I plugged it in using my adapter in my truck the msg battery low came on and it shut off after about 15 mins. The car adapter lights up so why is it not charging and staying on once plugged in?? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I have the Drive 50 LM. Does it have a way to link it to my Cell Phone and Call someone by using it as a Hands Free Device?

Great video. Thanks

Is there a way to set up the pick ups and drop off on the right side

Excellent video, thanks so much for taking the time. I was hoping to see some info on the dash cam. Either my gps has failed or I have inadvertently shut off the alignment "live" video on startup and destination reach, portion. It does still record . There may be other vids covering this topic.

My Nuvi 50 is missing the direction icon on the bottom of the screen N-S-E=W. How can I get these to display on the screen?

I have a new one and it tells me I am in Miami FL. I can't figure out how to get a local signal. Is it defective? I heard you mention something similar at the end of this video. Any info would be appreciated.

I have usb cable that came with Garmin plugged into wall outlet. I won’t charge. I keep getting The attached cable currently

Big question: can I use my car garmin on my bicycle? The bicycle gps are very small and very expensive. Thank you!

Hi I want to great you about this video. So let me know please how to add Canada and Mexico on my garmin drive 51? Thanks

Good information well done. Thanks.

Thank you very much for the video…

how to updated map? my is 50LM GPS, 2019. while I use Garmin express, it show MicroSD card need for install. but where could I insert card?

Great information excellent

great video thank you soooo much

To anyone, what are your thoughts on calculation mode, faster time vs minimal distance? Do you think minimal distance saves on fuel?

28:35 kudos on revealing the cryptic!!!

Do you have tutorials on the trip planner?

I have a Garmin DriveAssist 51 LMT-S. Years ago, a Garmin specialist showed me how to enlarge the icons that show upcoming food, gas stations, hotels, etc. Now I don’t like them so large. How do I get those icons back to normal size? I can’t remember if he did on the Garmin GPS itself or in BaseCamp then uploaded to the GPS? Great video. Thanks

Great video...... Thank You ....

do all of those units require a cell phone signal to use. the point of a purpose built gps is to get around when you cant use your cell phones

Excellent 👍👍

hello. just bought one garmin drive 61. i live in sweden, but was born in hungary. saw in garmin express that europé is divided in two different package, where i can choose sweden or hungary. very sad. can you somehow install just hungary, and how do i do that?

Thank you brother for an excellent tutorial. I have one question. When I search location by address, sometimes I get too many options and it becomes little confusing which one is right address to chose. I like to enter zip code first to narrow down the choices for address. But I did not see Zip Code entry option in your tutorial. How can zip code be enabled on Garmin Drive 50? Thanks.

nice video!

Beautiful thank you. My Brad new garment is about to be used,

Hi , first of all I really enjoy your informative videos . Thank you . So my question is , when I turn on my garmin drive 52 the screen is 100% brightness . When I use the USB plug to power it on my motorcycle it automatically goes to about 70 % or so brightness . If I go into the brightness setting it will not let me change the setting on the slide . If I unplug the USB it will then let me change the setting . Is there any way to get around this situation ? Any help would be much appreciated . Thank you .

Excellent information 👌 thanks

can you add multiple addresses at a time like old garmin.

Qual o melhor niv 40 ou 255w , qual dura mais na bateria ?

when putting in your destination will it let you do it by voice or do you have to type it in? Does it always know where you are at, for going to multiple locations
