Zumo Problem/Question
Not sure if this is the right area to post my question/problem.
Just installed my Zumo on my new '08 Ultra.
I hard wired it off of the cigarette lighter.
As Iride andoff the Zumo, it turns itself back on. Anyone else have this problem or is it Gremlins?
Spooked in Illinois!

It is hard wired so it comes on when the bike is running. If I want to turn it off, I hit the off button and it does turn off. Within5 minutes or so it turns itself back on!

RE: Zumo Problem/Question
I'm guessing you have a loose wire. When it moves and the connection is restored, the Zumo thinks you've turned the bike on again.
Not a doctor, only play one on TV, but thats my guess.

No it should stay off if you power it off. I somewhat agree with Greg. Recheck your connection to make sure both the power and ground are not loose in any way. If you have good connections, contact Garmin.

RE: Zumo Problem/Question
Is it powering back up on internal battery power?

RE: Zumo Problem/Question
I'm having a similar problem. Mine switches between battery and bike power. My power wire seems ok, so I believe it is a faulty craddle. Someoene else in the Zumo forum was having the same problem. Garmin is sending me a new craddle.

No its not using the internal battery. But maybe my connection is loose? Didn't know if there was a setting on the Zumo I was missing.

Dont know if this will help you out but...you need to make sure that the Zumo is in the cradle all the way.. mine was about to fall out when i caught it before it hit the floor.
