Thread: What is RTL Trap?

Och Garmin Garmin..

Some info on RTL Trap.
I have not had the RTL TRAP for about 4 days.
Unit has been 100%
Yesterday I loaded another map in memory card and did some changes to folder structure of Memory Card Using the Nuvi USB Cable.
On first boot it gave the RTL Trap, I've booted it a number of times after that and no problem.
I'm beginning to believe that it happens when files change.

Same here 1490T - GTM35 - ecorouteHD

Try to delete gupdade.gdc from unit memory and then do clear nonvol from diagnostic menu.
Also do all updates from My Dashboard. Occurance will deminish.

Moingr has done the GDC file to 5.7 already. Dashboard or Webupdater are needed to get the Gmaptz and the updated voices etc etc.
Garmin is asking for owners of units 13xx and 14xx to delete the gupdate.gdc from the unit memory and to update all other files in order to minimise the occurence of the RTL trap error.
