    help garmin tread loses weather radar and alerts when you disable a specific map

    So i bought a garmin tread to use off-road (for snowmobiling) and noticed it has weather radar, alerts, and weather forecast (when paired to garmin tread app on phone).
    Later on I noticed weather radar icon was gone, and only weather showed up.

    Their tech support suggested resetting device. So I did all that bs and set the whole thing back up again and had radar. I said oh cool. Then I disabled CN North America NT maps, so the gps doesnt try to route me on roads when I am using my GPStrailmasters third party maps on the device. Sure enough, after doing that, the weather radar and alerts disappear. Reenabled that map and they are back. Weather forecasts however always work.


    This is really annoying. Is there any kind of workaround anyone knows of. I can't keep that map on for this off-road application.

    Can anyone else verify this issue? Can you disable that CN North America map and see if you lose weather radar option like 20 seconds later. Then reenabled and see if it comes back. I am on the latest software. 7.50

    Have you tried using the TOPO Active PS maps not the North America NT maps, does it give the same issue?
    Maybe the app only works fully with a Garmin map visible to it ?

    well folks, after hours and hours messing with it, but some miracle it started working again. This has to be a software bug. Hope it stays working. But its gone in and out before.
