Hi guys, just saying hello.
I joined honestly out of desperation .... I have a Zumo 660 that came with the BMW GS bike.
It decided to chuck a mickey with the PIN code that I was given to me by the previous owner.
The Garmin Australasia people can't help me.
So, I'm hoping one of you learned folks would be able and kind enough to help me solve this conundrum.
regards
Rens

Re: Hi from Bundaberg Australia
Welcome to the forums @Rens .
"Chuck a Mickey" ? I've not heard that phrase before, had to look it up. The same as Uk "Throw a wobbler".
I can't help with the pin code. Maybe contact Garmin, or go back to the original owner ? I was going to suggest a system reset, but you probably cant do that until you've entered the pin.

Have owned Zumo 550, 660 == Now have Zumo XT2, XT, 595, 590, Headache
Use Basecamp (mainly), MyRouteApp (sometimes), Competent with Tread for XT2, Can use Explore for XT - but it offers nothing that I want !

Re: Hi from Bundaberg Australia
Thanks for your reply. I tried your suggestions and no go.
Chucking a mickey is an Aussie term. Another one is having a hissy fit.
It basically means "The computer says no!" But you probably already worked that out.
Cheers

Re: Hi from Bundaberg Australia
I'll move this post into the Zumo 660 area, see if anyone can help.
