Do Firmware updates and all optional updates.
Do hard reset and leave Nuvi outside for 20 minutes to get all Sat Data.
When I was in the UK it was difficult to get a Good Fix in cloudy sky.

1) And check if map had installed correctly. May be you drive through basemap. How do you installed map?
2) Do you look on satellites page (put your finger on satellites signal strength indicator and hold)? Do you see sufficient number of received satellites?Garmin, how much is 30 pieces of silver for Judas today? Were they worthy for crucifix of GPSPower?
