Too bad I didn't think of that. My replacement unit isn't so bad and I can't get it reliably, with the old one, a video would have been a piece of cake.

Maybe somebody can explain a procedure to show that bug every time.

I have sometimes the bug, sometimes not.

That would be helpful.

I will do some testing this week, but I do not yet know what the results will be!

Sometimes, only if they have more questions, but if they can duplicate the issue, usually not.

I had an email from Garmin support today. They said a number of people have reported this issue and that they are working on a fix.
