Look in the Mapsource Map Dropdown list to see if the Map is listed Select It.

Try Control G Control G - This Switches off Detailed map and Then Switches on detailed Map

First look if your Mapsource is not set to show the basemap only like suggested by Dasilvarsa



Same in Basecamp Menu/Maps/Map product/ select your map

Thanks again for the help. My Mapsource is the newest or last one released and do not have that drop down menu. (I have tried to upload a photo but can't get it to upload). The Basecamp program say there is a problem with the Garmap maps and I must reinstall it. I did that but gave same error.

Note by MOD: quote only the necessary,please. Thanks ;
