Wife lost cable for 2720, making temporary, need pinout


Recommended Posts

I am searching for the pinout for a Garmin 2720.

My wife borrowed it for a trip to North Carolina a few weeks ago, and left the cable in the rental car. I was looking for it yesterday, and she mentioned that she left it. :D

Could have mentioned it sooner, I think. I am about to leave on a motorcycle trip tomorrow morning. DOH!

I know I can make a temporary cable from some bent flat pins and a credit card, but I don't know the pinout.

Can someone find a diagram, or tell me which pins to use? I have been searching, but it has been fruitless.

 

Thanks in advance!

The 2720 uses a standard mini-USB, available just about anywhere. Nothing special about it.

For power? The connector I had for power was a rounded triangle sort of thing. I know about the data connector.

 

I just tried the mini-usb, and it doesn't power up with that alone.
