Bluetooth stopped working after a year
I've had this gps receiver for over two years. It worked well for about a year. Now the bluetooth transmitter in it doesn't work, and I cannot connect or pair any of my devices with it.
The bluetooth blue LED doesn't light up, or stays continuously on, instead of flashing intermittently as it's supposed to. If I restart the unit several times, I can sometimes get it to work.
Additionaly, the battery is sensitive to heat. I left it on the dash for a couple of days once, and the battery swelled up, and I could not close the battery lid since.
I'm definitely not buying this unit again.
