    Garmin approach g6

    Hi fellas---does anyone have any experience with Garmin service in Canada ?

    My G6 is forever changing screens and giving false readings---it is less than a year old.. Are they repairing---replacing with "refurbished units" or replacing completely ?

    Any help would be appreciated.
    Does the 2nd hole-n-one come easier ?

    Maybe you've already tried this but the Garmin "Support" page for the G6 suggests doing a "master reset" in cases where the unit is not working properly. The other possibility is to connect it to your computer and do an update. Likely something has become corrupted but I don't have any personal experience with the G6. I do have a unviable GPS for my car that I thought had died that I managed to save by doing a map update. Good luck - I'd be pretty frustrated if my gps died after less than a year.

    Funny , I'm having a problem with my g6 also , mines is 2 years old , my touchscreen is unresponsive , I emailed garmin and you seemingly send it to them , in the states I think but not sure , they told me that if it is under year old and you scan and email them the recipt of purchase they will fix for free , if out of warranty like mine , there is a flat fee of $99 for repair or reacement product , funny I started having problems just after I updated , I may try to update again and see if this fixes the issue before sending it away

    Scottishgolf---there is a Canadian repair facility in Montreal---check with them first---they have an 800 number--just google Garmin Repair in Canada.

    I recalibrated mine and it has fixed some of the problems but not all---I'll give it a couple more weeks---I'm good till June 29th
