I hope you are trying to be funny, neither am I.

A screen shot is an Image of the SCREEN (the display) of an electronic device. It can be of your Computer Monitor a PDA device's screen or in this instance of the GPS Unit.

You have a "screen shot" of a GPS unit alongside the title of this question.

Is this the question you wanted answered?

Use the Garmin Express program from Garmin. Down load and install the program, then connect your GPS to your PC. The program will allow you to install map and software updates.

I have a garmin nuvi 250 and the touch screen is

Go to Garmin and download and install Garmin Express, Plug your GPS into your PC. The GPS should power on and Garmin Express should identify it and tell you of any updates. If there is a software update available, that should solve your problem.

I have a Garmin Nuvi 255 GPS. I have a new battery/ fully charged. The screen lights up when turned on with Where to? / View map as well as the volume and tools icons. However does not react.

You might as well go ahead and replace the GPS, the screen has failed most likely, a new cost less than repairing it.

What do i do to get the pin

If you are not the original owner, you will have to hard reset the unit to factory, this will reset all stored information

This tip will describe how to perform a hard reset of the device, and how to backup your 'Favorites' in case the hard reset erases them. The next step in fixing your Nuvi when it doesn't start properly is to update its system software using Garmin WebUpdater.

A hard reset (or Clear All User Data) has been known to resolve unit quirks and strange behavior. It's generally recommended to perform it after a firmware update but is not required by any means. However, if you're seeing quirks and strange behavior with your unit after the firmware update, it is a good idea to do a hard reset of the unit.

Backup and Restoration Procedure for Favorites:

The Hard Reset procedure has been known to delete your Favorites, so back them up beforehand.

From the Nuvi drive, copy '/Garmin/GPX/current.gpx' to a backup location on your computer.
After the hard reset, copy your backed up 'current.gpx' from your computer back to the '/Garmin/GPX/' folder on the Nuvi, but be sure to rename it 'temp.gpx'.
On the next power cycle, the Favorites will be read from 'temp.gpx' into the non-user accessible memory area on the Nuvi where they are actually stored.

Perform the Hard Reset:

*Note that this will clear all user selected settings on the unit

Power the unit off.
Remove the battery and wait several minutes.
Install the battery.
Press and hold (and continue to hold) the bottom-right corner of the screen while powering the unit on.
Continue to hold the screen until the "Do you want to erase all user data?" prompt appears.
Press "yes" and the unit will reboot. This resets all your location settings and user preferences.

If possible after the hard reset, let the unit sit outdoors in the open for about 30 minutes or so to let the unit re-acquire the satellite almanac data.

You have now performed a hard reset of your Garmin Nuvi 200 and 205 series GPS unit.

I hope that helps.

Hello,

Going back to the security location will unlock the unit but in order to reset the pin code, the original pin code must be input.
To unlock the unit, it must be sent back to Garmin.
