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

Auto-dimming at dusk seems to be off by ~15 minutes (should dim sooner). Auto-brightening at dawn is OK.

 

Mark,

I've sent my 730 back to RM for service because of constant lockups. They sent me a unit with the same serial number back and it is doing exactly the same thing.

It won't run for more and a couple of hours (usually 15-30 minutes) without throwing multiple NAVI.exe errors and locking up, or just outright locking up without the NAVI.exe errors.

Should I send the unit back yet again?

If not, what can be done to get a reliable 730?

Thanks in advance.

 

Lane Assist gripes:

On MO-125 heading north just south of Strafford, there ought to be a turn assist at the intersection of highway D. The TND just says "continue on 125 for 10 miles" but 125 actually makes a right turn off of the highway so if you're not paying close attention to the little highway signs, you'll wind up in a residential-type area. There ought to be "turn right to continue on 125" warning here:




On US-71 heading north through Kansas City, lane assist initially tells you to exit on 2H Admiral Blvd instead of 2G (us-71):




Once you get onto US-77 from NE-2 and head north towards I80-west, the TND acts as if you are already on I-80 and says nothing like "keep left to go onto I80 west"

 

New Exit. I-294 Tollway southbound you can now exit at 147th street. New entrance onto I-294 Tollway northbound (only) from 147th street
