Radar is too cold

3619303 over 1 year ago

Hello,

since two weeks when using the device as simulator, after 10 seconds I get the message "The radar is too cold. It must warm up to over -4F (-20C) before the radar can be used again.

However, I am not in antartica. Its +28 Celsius now and still summertime.

This message pops up immediately and I cannot use the radar features at all.

The device is updated.

Thanks for your help.

Regards,
Michele

Hi ...

As mentioned before, I have tried all the recommendations in https://support.garmin.com/en-US/?faq=y6Ax1d8KM34MulWAg9wiX6&productID=597253&searchQuery=radar%20&tab=topics, BUT none is working.

I have contacted the product support group or service center in Jakarta/Indonesia (https://maps.app.goo.gl/YPczJXZ2RE1U3KZG9) and the only response they have this product (Garmin Approach G80) has been discontinued or service out of date and they have to returned the device back to me.

This is the detail of my device: Garmin Approach G80, Golf GPS, ASIA, A03346 with SN : 682001412.
