Navman iCN 520 GPS Receiver - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

There should be a battery On/Off switch on the back. Have you tried turning it off, leaving it for 10 seconds then turning it back on?

Also, there should be a reset button either on the top or on the back. Hope this helps and solves your problem.

I you are going to change the battery, you have to take it out. Take it out and read off all the part numbers or serial numbers. One by one type them into google until you see the battery on sale somewhere with a price.

I found that if you open out the receiver at the back and make sure it is touching the windscreen it works for me. If not I don't get a signal. It is worse in one of our cars because it has a heat reflective windscreen.

go inside your 520 and you may see the plugs or the gps have come off this sometimes happens when you have knocked the unit. the wires are attached to the rear cover and run down and under a piece sticky tape check and see if they have fallen off.

that is probably due to the battery being totaly dead,
try using a mobile phone charger (nokia),
usb is for data transfers.

yes you need to replace the batt the reason for burn out so fast can be a number of things from moister getting into it during storage to simply bad line assembley

you can download maps in an sd slot and use it
you need to purchase it here.

Hi,
Navman don't do maps for that device. Call them (0871 277 0140) I believe they have a trade in offer still available

what do you mean by not working ,does it load the maps or is it powering on at all check you battery try turning it on while it is charging you might need replacment battery if it aint powering up goodluck

You need to hold the power button for about 5 seconds to turn it on. If that does not turn it on. Then you need to run a check on some of the components of the device. You start with the battery, then charger and the device seem to be working fine, because when you plug it in, the device amber lights come on. It is supposed to turn green when it is fully charged, but it seems like the battery is not holding a charge, that is why it is not turning green.

Test another well charged battery inside the device to see if it will power on and work properly, if it does, then it means all you have to do is to replace the battery, but if it does not power it on, then it means there is an internal problem with the unit.

Try to connect it to a computer to see if it will detect it. Once it detects it, try to charge in on there for some time to see if it will hold a charge there.

If it is properly charged, it will be able to power on fully. Also check the device on the computer to see if the software and files are still on the unit. That should also assist you in solving the problem.

Hope this information helped you.

• Try to check maybe the gps is in a DEMO mode try to deactivate the demo mode.

map can only be dont by buying a sim card for it

dead useful Falter!

OK - remove the 2 screws on the bottom, then to open the unit you have to unclip the end panels... from the back, use an old card of some sort (I just used a hotel room key)
If you need to, cut a slight angle on an edge to let you force it into the groove. slide it about, pushing outwards and you should find the ends will un clip. there are then 2 more screws on either end to un do. The back then carefully unclips from the top and bottom panel. the battery is then free to be replaced.

Hello!!!!
This is solve your problem.I can help you if you want.
my msn: [email protected]
Put my conntact to your msn or yahoo and than we talk about the problems.I am doing only myguide and i have many many experience.

Remove the 2 small screws and use a tiny flat screwdriver and insert it by where the screws came out and twist. It is clipped down with a series of plastic flanges which can be popped with a twist in between the front and rear case. You need to work your way around the case doing the side with the earphone jack last as the cover needs to slide slightly sideways to slip off. Don't be afraid to use gentle pressure as they will pop apart and wont break
