Web Updater Failure

Think I saw this before but search did not find. While doing a web updater update to my 60CSx it failed partway thru, resulting in missing software message. This was using the latest web updater. Any suggestions on next step?

go to the updates webpage - on the right hand side of the page click on show all updates. find your gps in the listed models and download the software for your unit. run the update manually.

Sorry to say it but with my expierience with firmware I'd have to say your unit is dead and you'll have to send it in for replacement through Garmin (warrenty should cover it easily).

You should definitely try as Vlad instructs, and download the software separately and try the update that way, I am reasonably sure I heard about another here on the forum experiencing the same that rescued his GPSr that way.

 

Best of luck!

I have (unfortunately) had to do that TWICE and it has worked both times. When I did it I didn't turn anything (computer or GPS) off. I'd sure try a manual reload before going through the trouble of sending the unit back.

Many thanks, the manual update process worked fine. Back in business.

Every firmware update on any system can be repeated this should never be a return to base situation. If it is then the manufacturer is not following the basic rules of the game.
