Support Thread for the TND 500, TND 700 or future Rand McNally products. (part two)

I'm PM you the email after this posts, Also I can confirm it's happening constantly, Was just in Denver it locked up a total of 10 times, then in SLC today it locked up as soon as it got close to down town and it was a constant fight to refresh the unit. But once you get the unit out on the open road away from any city's it works flawless.

 

Hi Mark. I updated my 720 a couple weeks back. I ran from Louisiana to Arkansas. Interstate 49 in Arkansas was not on the map. May be I didn't update the latest maps.

 

1 thing before bed & before I forget; in Dallas,TX on S 2nd Ave approx address on the 510 is 5317 - heading SE only, (divided road, heading NW there is no restriction) there is a 24,000lb per tandem axle bridge that my 510 always routes me over as it is rightfully the fastest/easiest/safest way back to civilization, yet I have my truck set always loaded @80,000lbs.

This is right next to the large "Atomic" dropyard behind the pick & pull that many companies use in the Dallas ghetto. Having seen many trucks go that way, I think they just follow the GPS without noticing the sign, most are not empty; only a matter of time before bad things happen.

Proper route I use is run S2nd Ave NW up to Hatcher St - turn left on Hatcher - run Hatcher to TX175 -
Going north/west turn right on South Central Expressway service road & merge onto TX175 N/W on the left - runs right back to I45/I30.
Going south/east run Hatcher under TX175 & turn left on South Central Expressway service road - run that down to Walnut - turn left on Walnut - weave through the S turn - after stop sign TX175 S/E entrance is immediate left - runs straight into I20.

Cheers

 

I'm using the cable that came with it, truck is a cascadia daycab, not sure what the voltage is but it worked fine the first 2 months i had this truck then started doing this.

 

Yes DC doesn't matter which

 

Thanks for the reply Mark.
I was finally able to get through to tech support. RM had to remote into my computer... they found a few bad files. So far, so good.
