The cable for my wife's 1490 needs to be replaced after the plug got broken. I'm fairly sure that is the same cable I had to buy for her last year. I am so pleased that it now works fine, and she is getting her traffic updates again.
You'll be able to use the 1350T if it has traffic. Also, this cord will power and charge any Nuvi, we can see a big piece of plastic on it that houses the traffic antennae
I have the exact same thing. It works perfectly and is much cheaper than what you can buy in
This model is very budget-friendly, there are no frills, and there is

I found this to be helpful! In my Garmin GPS, I used to get a low battery message, then it would shut off Then turn the computer off, and then on I will (and The plugin does exactly that )
It was all fixed when there was a replacement. A poor plug was the cause of the problem A receiver is in the room. (Yes, I know about the broken solder joints, but that wasn't Plugs seem to be solid and their pins look straight, to replace your plug you will have to get a new one- Such a type would be nice. I found it to be effective.
Having done an extensive diagnostic with Garmin on the unit, the traffic only showed up inconsistently. Our issue has been resolved after patching the device manually (their web site has been down for a few days) and getting traffic FM updates, but the problem stays. The system is supposed to detect a special cable with an antenna in it when power comes up from this cable, and put a traffic option on the system settings screen when that connection is made. There was no reason for this to happen. replaced the cable rolling around my car's floor that had been stomped on too often with this one because I thought it had been stomped on too many times. The free traffic and traffic options show up almost instantly and it worked like a charm.
There are no instructions included with this. In addition to the reviews from other sites, I've found input that is helping me figure things The DFW area is notorious for frequent traffic backups as a result of It helps me determine alternate routes when I need to make a change. A unit without traffic is worth the price if you have one that will not come with it. The unit price is expected to go up by a little more than $100 if you elect to purchase this feature. Consequently, this feature only works in metro areas, so if there are construction projects on an interstate while you are driving, this tool is of little use. It seems that AAA still has a few things to offer. MSN Direct traffic is useless. Don't waste your money on it. Support for MSN Direct is being phased out by Microsoft in the first quarter of.
The cord is like any other car power cord that comes with a car-mounted device. It does, however, have a small box inline. In order to connect with traffic information, this box does its magic. If a road is even slightly slowed down, it will appear in red, and a circle will appear on screen to indicate how much time has elapsed. The devices are relatively new to me at the moment, but they seem to be sensitive to individual lanes. We will therefore draw attention to a slightly slower speed lane. There's no way for me to understand how it works, I just know it does. Though there's a caution to be aware of. There are only a few major cities where it is available. If you're not sure if your area has coverage, check with your provider. Furthermore, there is no need to install any software other than plugging the unit into a power source and the plugging the unit into the unit.
I turned my cheap old Garmin into a chatty, helpful sidekick thanks to this cord. A traffic antenna is built into the cord. Thanks to Google's tap into every Android device along the road, it is now possible for any of us in the sticks to get traffic warnings. There is a notice on the unit telling you to take the next exit, without saying why it does so. I am not sure if it is because the unit is older. However, sometimes I am warned clearly that traffic is bad ahead by the unit. There's just no way to predict, but it does help. In the Garmin, they still pronounce it like a third-grader, and their 'recalculating' is as condescending as ever.
As soon as I opened it, I saw the Garmin branding. I couldn't get it to The message I received from my unit was that it was incompatible. Thanks to Amazon returns, I was able to return my order without having to deal with any problems.
This Garmin GTM 25 GPS was acquired from Amazon, and I found it to work well. The system remained live until the service provider turned it off For this item, "lifetime traffic and maps" constituted lifetime traffic and maps. My Garmin subscription expired a couple of months ago, so I had to buy a new one to use maps and traffic in There was no way to categorically determine if the manner in which it was advertised lived up to the English description Usually, the cost of a new subscription is within $25-$35 It cost me thirty dollars more than what I had spent to purchase In what ways does this feel right to me? There is no. As a result, I found myself having to spend those dollars to be able to make the most of the GPS system.
As a result of my original power cord breaking at the USB end, I bought this one. I still did not receive any traffic data once I plugged it in. As I was updating my Garmin and going back and forth with technical support, I received a response that the serial number of the power cord is only compatible with European traffic alerts. I immediately sent Garmin the serial number of the power cord. This is the first purchase I've made on Amazon that I've been so disappointed in. If you are not going to Europe, this is NOT the purchase for you.
