Garmin Nuvi
is a GPS option from Garmin. A few versions of Garmin Nuvi are available but they all have similar features. Like any GPS devices, the Garmin has maps. When a map is incorrect, the maps in the GPS are most likely outdated and require updating to correct the mistake and fix the incorrect map.
Instructions
1. Go to the Garmin Nuvi website under the maps section and select "Check For Updates."
2. Select "Agree" for the terms and conditions that pop up. Select "Install" when prompted by the website. This will install the program on the computer for checking the map updates available on the website.
3. Connect the Garmin Nuvi to the computer through a USB cable. The website will connect to the device to determine the Garmin Nuvi version and the maps currently installed on the GPS. Click "Find Map Updates." The website will show any updates available for the device. A Nuvi that was purchased 60 days or earlier will allow free updating while an older Nuvi will require the purchase of new maps.
4. Purchase the new maps. There are two purchase options, either a single map update or the option to subscribe for four updates for a year that will allow the device to update four times before purchasing a new map is necessary. Select the preferred option, pay the money and electronically download the new maps. This will correct the maps on the GPS.
