I have a buddy that has a 520 and the GPS has quit working. I told him that we should probably check the T before we replace his puck so now I'm looking for a red T to borrow or buy. Please let me know if anyone has one.
Have any of you tried to hardwire and not use the T's? He told me he was told to try this but I don't know if it sounds like a good idea since you are supposed to use that resistor in there if you don't network.
Thanks,

Tell him to make sure that teh puck is still wired good to the power wire. My puck quit working this spring. I thought the puck had went bad but it turned out that it just wasn't getting power due to corrosion where it was wired to the power supply.
The new pucks are about $250 now too b/c they don't make the 2000 or 3000 anymore.
Alliston is right. Check the connector/fuse inside it. My buddies did the same thing and it turned out some corrosion got on it. filed it off and back in business.

Yes, check the NMEA fuse. It's probably blown.
Forgive my ignorance, but is that just the fuse on the power line to the puck? Or is there another fuse some place else?
Thanks.
