    Try running (obviously the latest) F/A from inside your new truck map folder rather than from the root of your SD card (which does also include the ttgo.bif file, yes?)

    So have you only got the truck map folder on the SD card & the 9.702 navcore incl the ttgo.bif on internal?

    If so, copy the ttgo.bif to the card & re-run F/A from there again

    In theory F/A just needs to see the map folder(s) and your ttgo.bif in order to activate (create meta.dct's) map(s) provided of course that the meta codes are available for the maps you're trying to activate.
    Try moving F/A.exe to the SD card where your map folder(s) are along with your ttgo.bif.
