Garmin Data Card

Postby highflyer1000 » Sun Oct 28, 2012 8:22 pm

Guys,
Anyone got a spare Garmin Data Card to suit a GPSMAP 296, 32Mb or bigger. Trying to bring an old unit back to life :)

A good landing is one you can walk away from, a great landing is one where you can use the aircraft again.

Hi from john.If your 296 wont come to life a data card wont help.The 296 has a small internal battery that will only charge when you connect to external power,this can sometimes be the problem.Garmin do a excellent repair/exchange.I had one done last year at a cost or 148 pounds including postage.It came back with the later better screen as on the 496 and updated database and maps.john
