Does anyone know where i can send my gps for repair, its just out of warranty. Cant get it to charge and turn on.
email locosys, the manufacturers in Taiwan. www.locosystech.com/en/page/contact-info.html
They will email you a form to fill out and then arrange for you to send the unit to them with a service number.
Their inspection costs $20 which they then deduct from the repair cost if you go ahead. They will get back to you with photos and a description of the fault and a quote. If it is unserviceable they will replace it for below usual cost. I was very happy with their service.
Since it is out of warranty, you can try what I did with mine when it got some water inside it and wouldn't turn on nor recharge.
Open it
Take the sd card out of it
Put a lot of WD40 in it. Empty it and spray again. Empty it and let it completely dry.
Then I plugged it to the pc and Windows vista asked to find the software on internet and reinstalled it on the device.
I don't know if i was lucky but I did it twice and it works fine now...(make sure it WD40 since I haven't try with anything else).
does anyone know what type of battery they use? or which is a suitable replacement? haven't got any stores around here that sell that type of product
