help please
Fully Charge the unit then turn it on and go out into an open space with a clear view of the sky and do a Soft Reset, hold the ON/OFF button down for about 20 seconds until you hear the drumroll sound then let go of the button, Now create a route on it and then lieave it to try and lock on to the Sats. This can take quite a while , as much as 30 unites o more,

When you add an extra memory card as recommended by @dhn then the unit can now download a new map as the map is bigger than the space taken by your current map on the internal memory. When it is able to download a new map then if it does not delete the old map as a part of the process then you need to consider whether you delete the old map from the Internal memory. If you delete it if there is any problem with the Extra memory card then you have not got a map on the internal memory that it needs to boot up.
Re getting a signal try this.
Fully charge the unit for at least 2 hours then take the unit outside well away from Buildings and Trees etc. Now do a Soft Reset, ie with the. unit on and working hold the ON/OFF button down for about 20 secs until you hear the Drumroll sound then release the button. The unit will now boot up and when ready create a route on it so it would work if you started to drive then leave in the open for at least 30 minutes or until it locks on to the Sats.
All the best.

Thanks Doug, it worked for me.
