Yes! The GTM-20 is a charger with a built-in traffic receiver. The charger plugs into the cradle for the Nuvi 660 and then the Nuvi 660 snaps into the cradle.

However to receive traffic with the GTM-20, you will need to purchase a subscription, either yearly or lifetime. The traffic receiver receives traffic information from FM radio broadcast stations, which broadcast traffic data.

SOURCE: Transfer "favorites" from Garmin Nuvi 660 to 765T

I had the same problem. I called Garmin and the lady said if I had the software Map Source or something, that can do the trick, but the funny thing is you have to buy the software with Map Updates, or you get the software when you buy a new unit, and register the unit within 60 days of first satellite reception. Though I searched internet and someone said to copy a certain file/folder or I'd rather just copy the whole GPS folders and that might do the trick. You are right, this is a pain in the rear end.

SOURCE: Garmin nuvi / gtm 20 charger not working. I think

If yours has a plastic tip at the silver metal contact, just unscrew the plastic part between the silver ring and the silver tip. Counter clockwise! Fuse should fall out but take cautions not to lose the silver tip part. I you do it can be found at www.gpsnstuff.com

My nuvi 660 seems to have "lost" the traffic portion . When I touch tools and go to look for traffic - or "settings" there is no settings . Could it be the GTM-20 FM transmitter is bad?...

If the GTM-20 Traffic Receiver is functioning, you should see a blue diamond on the main screen and you should be able to find a traffic icon in the menu.

If the diamond is grayed out, then the traffic receiver hasnt locked yet. If the traffic symbol is completely missing, then yes it could be a problem with the traffic receiver or the cradle or plug that plugs into the cradle.

The Nuvi 6xx receives traffic information from the GTM-20 receiver through the plug that plugs into the cradle.

My GTM 20 tip got unscrewed and the parts fell out. I put the parts together and then found out that both the car socket fuse and the GTM 20 fuse were busted. I replaced both fuses. The car socket works...

The GTM 20 can be repaired. It's likely that either you're not using the correct fuse or there's a short circuit. The short circuit would be caused by the metal tip, spring or fuse touching the outer part of the plug. There's a repair kit available from http://www.gpscity.com/garmin-replacement-parts-for-gtm2x.html

I keep blowing fuses in the car charger for my Garmin Nuvi 660

What happens when you replace the fuse, plug in the charger without plugging the charger into the 660? Does it blow then? If not, the 660 is damaged internally and causing the fuse to blow. If it still blows, then there is a problem in the charger.

I bought my garmin 660 nuvi at techs for less- do i have to subscribe to traffic alert or does it come with the 660 i purchased

You have to have the traffic receiver / car charger in order for it to work (GTM-20) It looks like this:

https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?pID=403

It has a green LED for power and and an alternating yellow/red LED for traffic data detection.

Yes, you have to have a subscription to the service.
