The 2720 Plug will start coming apart you will have to push it inward and it’ll probably come on. That’s what I had to do to mine. I actually super glued it back together and it works fine now. So check the pins on the back of that plug. Also make sure it’s a tight connection on the other end. Sometimes
it depends how that’s in to. As far as the touch screen mine only glitched once the other day but came back to life by itself.

The type of roads that you Want to drive on and/or not drive on is selectable on your 2720 via the Menu.

I have the 2720 ever since it hit the market years ago. I have had the problem you are asking about. Check the connections inside the car adapter plug … check the copper connections at the cable and where the the cable connects to the 2720.

I have a problem that just started … I no longer have the “Touch Screen” feature. I am hunting down my remote to take over the touch screen feature. Maybe programming via the 2008 / 2009 CD?

Can I plug a Bluetooth adapter (Radio Shack) into my 2720 and use a wireless blue tooth headset to hear navigation instructions?

I have two 2720s units and I can’t get either of the remotes to work properly. It will not scroll up and down or sideways. Any help would be appreciated. These sre my fourth units from the StreetPilot series and I have loved them.

I have similar issue regarding StreetPilot 2720 fails to erase 2008 map from the device after 2009 map updated. I now have two maps which take so much memory space. I disabled the 2008 map. The 2720 came with 2GB fixed memory. I called Garmin twice, but the first tech told me it can not be removed and there is no work around for it. The second tech did not seem to help much, he said \ just re-install the map again\ and it should work. Well it didn’t work. I found this instruction from one of the website, but it didn’t work for me

First, use MapSource to create GMAPSupp.image (All North American Map Regions) into any USB or SD device. Second, change this file to GMAPPROM.img. Third, use command line bellow to program GMAPPROM.imag into 2720 unit.
C:GarminWebUpdater.exe /upload_file rgn=49 path=C:GarminGMAPPROM.IMG -autorun usb /unlock_check fid=378 pid=1 /i

I appreciate for any advise to resolve this issue.

Thank you

I don’t have any of those older STP 2000 series devices anymore, so I’m not certain of the steps. Garmin support should be able to help you out though.
