SD card & New Junction view file

Former Member over 13 years ago

I have searched but haven't found anything stating if I need to create any folders on the Mirco SD card and then put the big Junction View file in the folder I created.
I have map version 2013.1 the new D3060060A.JCV and a NUVI 2555LMT which does display Junction views. I also found reference to needing the Micro card formatted to FAT32 format which I did using the SD formatter 3.1 program. I have a test route that has Junctions views shown but I have not had any luck after renaming the existing JCV file and having the Micro card with the New JCV file on it installed. I also tried the micro card without formatting to FAT32 and this did not work either.
Using MS windows XP Pro.

Do I need to create any folders and if I do, what label do they need?
Is the Micro card format correct, card is a 4GB?

Thanks

The 2555 shouldn't need, and may not work, with the JCV file you downloaded. The one that came with the 2013.10 map update should be fine.

I don't know what folders the 2555 uses but on my 1490T the JCV file goes in the \Gamin\JCV folder on an SD card but again it may not be valid on a 2555.

Yes the Garmin does show the junction views on my test route using the normal file.
What is the difference between the regular JCV file and the bigger downloaded file? I would think junction views in more places.

My 2555LMT defualt path is "Garmin nuvi\system\JCV", this raises the question, do I need to create a path to the new JCV file on the Micro sd card? and what would it be?

One other thing I have tried is I re-placed the orginal JCV file with the larger file, this resulted in no juction views being shown on the test route.
I may be not be able to use this lage file.

Thanks
