I have the same unit, and I even bought a new battery for it. After the resudal charge on the new battery wore off, it would not charge.
I now use it exclusively plugged into the cigarette lighter. When I need to update the maps, or the software, I use the USB cable.

I am still trying to get the tech manuals on it.

Hope that helps.

Go to Magellan site. They have the maps for sale on there site, plus you can purchase the unlock code from them

Providing you saved the SD card info as soon as you got it, reformat the SD card and copy the files over. Or find a friend that has the same unit and copy their files. Reformat your card before also.

It is looking for the map file on the sd card. Usually you can just go in the config menu and tell it to use the internal map (if this model has it). It may not be as detailed as what was on the sd card but will get you around.

If the SD is still in the unit the SD may have failed or become corrupted.

My Magellan 1412 has a black piece of tape on the bottom. The SD card is behind this tape.

Well the first thing you need to do is call the manufacture for the program and then once you get the program ether on external media or internet FTP site is hook you gps up to your computer via usb cable then run the installer and you should be set from there. The hard part about this whole operations is getting the program.

satellite acquisition takes several minutes with good line of sight to the sky, assuming the unit dose see at least 1 satellite in the sky this would mean theirs issues with the internal antenna or the receiver is malfunctioning, when you said opened up the new unit i assume you disconnected the small connectors, maybe one is not fully conencted or the wire became disconnected during reasembly. theirs alsoa chance the unit has to be reset.
