I recently bought a garmin c550 from ebay and the screen it is locked i need to know how to unlock the screen do not have the unlock code can you help ?
Garmin's security code is setup in such a way that if you forget the code you can drive to a previously set "security" location which would then allow you to turn on the machine without the code.You could then use the menu system to clear the code. What you will have to do is either try to get the code from the person you bought it from or send in the unit and a copy of your receipt to Garmin to have them clear the code.
