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.

The CD is not available for download from Navman it seems, but you can get it at thepiratebay.com. Just search for 'navman icn' and you'll find what you need, I just did. Better learn how to download torrents though! :)

SOURCE: continual "waiting for gps " message

the message should also read no mnsa data first... if these units are not in continual use,they get corrupt for some reason. all you can do is hope the gps fix will work itself out,otherwisw buy a new unit.

Navman icn 530

I had this problem when I first started using this product. The key is to make sure you start at your last end point. ie - if you are starting from your house, make sure that you last route ended at your house. Otherwise it has a very hard time determining where you are. Also, you need to sit still while it finds the gps, it continues to look for a position, but has a hard time finding when you are constantly moving. I know it's annoying, but this seemed to help in the long run. Good Luck

Icn 520

I have icn520 - bought an external aerial for it off e-bay now get full strength signal evertytime within seconds - well worth about a tenner rather than ditching the 520 which is was about to do!

It was the windscreen causing the problem for me

Navman icn 520 stuck on USB screen

I had this problem when I completely deleted the Backup folder from \My Flash Disk.

Restoring the backup folder allowed the 520 to operate properly again.

It is possible that you have a corrupted APPStartupSec.exe application. Without this file working it appears that the NAVMAN waits in USB mode for ever!

Hope this helps.

It will take ages to find a signal the first time it tried. Once locked on it should pick up the sats really quickly the next time you turn on the device.

If you turn it off completely (battery switch to off) then it will take ages again the next time it is turned on.

Hope this helps.
