    Have you got "de-clutter" turned on? That will remove a lot of detail from the map

    Sounds like you may have somehow switched to base map rather than your sd card map. Go into setup/map/choose map, and enable the one on sd card

    I had issues with my map at night loosing all detail and @Kiwi Greg fixed it....I think it was something to do with selecting single colour?

    Mine doesnt have a sd in it the maps hsve been loaded into the unit.
