May be bad touch software, try to run Webupdater.
Hi everybody!
I got used Garmin nuvi 780 - previous owner said unit just was flashing logo. So I got it to play with (for $10)
After charging overnight I can boot it! Everything works - I updated system, maps. It locates me on the road. Shows my speed. Perfect except of touch... It doesn't respond AT ALL!!!
I booted unit in calibration mode - it didn't respond to my touch of the dot...
I took it apart, reseated cables - the same.
Now I ran out of ideas... Is it bad digitizer? Do they fail?
Thanks for any help!

Digitizers can certainly fail while the LCD screen itself is still intact. Although replacing the digitizer only is possible, I would recommend to replace the LCD and digitizer as a combined set. Only a few dollars more in price and reduced risk of messing things up in the process.
Try the suggestion by navifan2 in post #2 first though.

Look at nuvi hidden diagnostic page (press and hold on battery symbol for 10 seconds) if touch software file is missing.
