This site was created to provide troubleshooting assistance to other fellow Nüvi owners and to also offer an alternative means to help them get their Nüvi's repaired quickly and at a lower cost. My Nüvi experience, began in December of 2007, when I purchased my first Nüvi as a Christmas present. Three days later, the on/off power switch broke. Needless to say, I was very dissapointed. Because I purchased my "new" Nüvi through an online auction on eBay and from a so-called "Authorized Dealer", Garmin was very unsympathetic and refused to honor the warranty. So, I decided to do some research and I purchased the necessary tools to take apart my Nüvi and repair it myself. In the process, I discovered that my Nüvi problem was due to a product design flaw. As an Engineer in Electronics, I developed a permanent solution to the problem and in the process, I have helped many Nüvi owners return their Nüvi's back to full functionality. Since then, I have been able to expand my services to repair many other Nüvi models & problems. I have been actively involved in the Electronics Industry for 30 years and I have repaired many electronic devices, such as Televisions, Radios, VCR's, Digital Cameras, Computers, Guitar Amplifiers, Cell Phones, CB Radios and Ham Radio Equipment. I don't charge by the hour and I don't charge a huge "flat rate" like the manufacturer. A flat rate is great if you've dropped your Nüvi into the lake or ran it over with your car but it's not such a great deal for someone with just a bad power switch or a dead battery. At SHARCNET-USA, you only pay for what's broken and you get your Nüvi back, not a refurbished one. So, if you have a problem with your Nüvi, Please feel free to contact me at sharcnet-usa@sharc.net. I'll be more than happy to discuss your Nüvi problem with you and attempt to offer a possible solution to have the problem resolved. Best wishes & safe travels, Jim - Owner, SHARCNET-USA |    |
