So my brother went ahead at a police auction (where they sell off all the stuff that hasn't been claimed) and Bought a Garmin Nuvi 360. We have no clue what the pin is, and we obviously have no original receipt, so how can we unlock this thing? (I'm willing to take it apart)
Unfortunately without the receipt you won't be able to make this work. When a Garmin PIN is set the user is allowed to pick a location that they can go to in case they forget the PIN. If they turn the unit on while at that location the unit will not ask for the PIN. The only other way to reset the PIN is to sent it back to Garmin. If it was bought at a police auction they would have supplied you with some kind of a transaction record. I would call Garmin Support at 800-800-1020 M-T 8AM-6PM Fri 8AM-5PM Central time. Explain the situation to them and they might be willing to fix it for you. Normally if they are sent a GPS that doesn't come with a receipt they will contact the Police in the registered user's area. Good luck.
Testimonial: "Good advice, told me how to make the warranty thingy work with Garmin"
