I was having this same problem after only having my 60CSx for 3 days! One day I was praising it and the next I wanted to smash it into tiny pieces! Today when I turned it on to go caching the satellite page just came up blank except for "Locating Satellites" no bars, no icons, no nothing.

Running the chipset software installer package will work every time.

You're a life-saver.įor future reference, the web updater does not always work. A few minutes later the HCx was fully updated and, joy of joys! it started locking onto satellites again. Now, I'd tried the WebUpdater on my previous Vista Cx and bricked that in the process but I figured I had nothing to lose this time. After finding your post, I checked the firmware versions and, sure enough, I had the dreaded "version 0". So we came back to the hotel (thankfully, free internet) and did some searching. I was rather panicky that I'd bricked it. All it said was "Locating Satellites" or "Acquiring Satellites". I thought the problem was the skyscrapers, but even with a clear view of the sky and a good long wait, it still refused to pick up any signal from the satellites. I was recently on holiday in New York and, right in the middle of a day of Geocaching, my eTrex Vista HCx suddenly became unable to get a lock. (Main Menu / Setup / System / menu button) If is says 0.0 then go to Garmin web site and get the chipset software to reload in your unit.īy any chance, when you turned the 60CSx on did you press the power button multiple times? (Once to power on and quickly press again to turn on the back light?)
