Hi flufoff, this will depend whether you bought it new or used, but after following the instructions below (how to start it) let me know and ill send you a copy of your manual or ill help you any way i can.


The following advice pertains to the following magellan gps systems.

Magellan 800, 860, 2000, 2200t, 2500, 3000, 3050, 3100, 3140, 4000, 4040, 4050, 5310 and 6000t

i fix these and many other magellan gps daily so when considering my advice , please understand i do not google my solutions.

assuming your car charger is working (the little green light is on) and your magellan still wont start up after holding the power button while its plugged in for up to ten seconds and still does not start..read below

this is actually a very common problem with these magellan power ports...they are poor quality from the factory and always and i mean always fail..the new ports that you find on ebay are 100% better then the factory port.

if your able to replace that power port yourself, you can get one HERE, if not, ask the fellow that sells them for help.

due to some dubious "experts" on fixya, im not permitted to help you directly, but please follow the link above to get further help.

let me know if you need more help or info

Why has my garmin started to take long time to open

Norm, Garmin GPS takes long time to open. It could need software update, battery replacement, fault in a update/firmware, etc. I almost think the manufacturers of GPS devices make the to fail after a few years, to frustrate people to buy another. Some say to rest to factory defaults to make GPS work better/quicker. Check the attached links,instruction and guides, Good luck

My Tom Tom XXL won't turn on when plugged in.

The GPS device runs off the battery ... so, you need to charge the battery (fully, or enough to power the GPS) before you start using it again. For clarity, if the battery is not charged, the GPS will not run when plugged into a power source.
