This document could be improved by including information about where to acquire a replacement battery, and any modifications that might be required to a generic battery.
Seems like there are some on Amazon and Ebay. Not sure how to verify getting the right one. Not that expensive, so maybe worth the risk.
It was a huge mistake to peel away the ribbon cable. It needs matched up precisely and exactly in the same alignment as it was before during reassembly, an apparently impossible task once it's been detached. I'd advise opening the halves in book form, leaving the ribbon cable as a hinge. Have about given up trying to position it.
Nice tutorial, except for the booby trap.
Cannot stress enough that the step 5 calling for the removal of the tape holding the ribbon cable be removed from this guide! My Nuvi will not work anymore because I can't get that ribbon cable aligned. I wish I had read all the comments as the above poster warned of this very problem. Please update the guide and remove step 5!
A question from Rich: After many years of use , the connector on the back for the charging cord seems loose . This results in power loss when the cord move or giggles as you go down the road. Is the connector directly in the battery ? Can I replace the connector only? Is it part of the battery and must the battery be replaced ? Thanks
did you ever find out if the power connector is attached to battery I have a problem where the garmin powers off on every bump jack wiggles ? do you know if it can be fixed
As others have mentioned, step 5 is not needed to change the battery and you will practically brick the nuvi because its impossible to perfectly align the cables. I wish I had seen more videos and instructions and read the comments. As it stands this are not good instructions for changing the battery.
After 5 or 6 tries to realign this cable I have pretty much given up. Like mentioned before DON"T REMOVE THE TAPE OR THE CABLE!
Agree with eismann, with calm and steady hand, it’s not that difficult to push the screen connector to the mainboard, then clap the plastic plate back to hold it. And you can do it with nuvi 200 powered on, once the screen is connected, screen will turn white, then you can restart it.
