Garmin GPSmap 60CSx - Problems with Compass


J-Dog

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I turned on my GPS Map 60 CSX after not using it for several months.

 

My arrow seems to be gone. It suddenly reappeared for a brief minute, but then it was gone again.

 

Anyone have any suggestions?

The Red Arrow only appears when you are navigating to a waypoint or following a route or similar. If you are not navigating, you won't see the Red Arrow, only the compass ring.

 

(The Compass Ring shows you which way you are facing or moving. The Red Arrow shows you which way to your next destination.)

Mine does this while on the hunt sometimes. Look down and it's poof! Gone!

Drives me bonkers.

So far, calibrating the compass or turing off then on helps.

It is not frequent enough for me to justify returning to Garmin, who if you ask them will act surprised as if they never heard of such a thing.

They have great CS, but could do a little better admiting when a trend shows up. I have seen several on here mention very simular problems.

My CSx does the same thing.
